When drawing the Lewis structure of the HCC13 molecule, the structure should represent a total of 26 valence electrons. What is the best description of the complete Lewis structure of the molecule? Select one: AH atom should be in the center with single bonds to each Cl atom and a double bond to the C atom. A Cl atom should be in the center with a single bond to the C atom and a single bond to the H atom. AC atom should be in the center with a double bond to the H atom and double bonds to each Cl atom. AC atom should be in the center with single bonds to each Cl atom and a single bond to the H atom.
Deciding whether a Lewis structure satisfies the octet rule Decide whether these proposed Lewis structures are reasonable. proposed Lewis structure Is the proposed Lewis structure reasonable? Yes. No, it has the wrong number of valence electrons. The correct number is: O N=N No, it has the right number of valence electrons but doesn't satisfy the octet rule. The symbols of the problem atoms are:* Yes. No, it has the wrong number of valence electrons. Н — н — О The correct number is: O No, it has the right number of valence electrons but doesn't satisfy the octet rule. The symbols of the problem atoms are:* Yes. No, it has the wrong number of valence electrons. The correct number is: O Н— О: No, it has the right number of valence electrons but doesn't satisfy the octet rule. The symbols of the problem atoms are:* If two or more atoms of the same element don't satisfy the octet rule, just enter the chemical symbol as many times as necessary. For example, if two oxygen atoms don't satisfy…
