Question
Chapter 1, Problem 1.21P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The conversion of given condensed structure of lactic acid to a Lewis structure is to be stated.
Concept introduction: To convert a condensed structure into Lewis structure, one should start from the left side and make sure that each carbon atom must be tetravalent. Also, give two lone pairs on each oxygen atom to have a complete octet.
