(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The Lewis structure of the molecules difluoromethane (CH2F2) are to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

➢ The Lewis structure of a molecule is a representation of the molecule in which the valence electrons of the atomsareshown.

➢ The number of valence electrons of an atom is equal to the group number to which it belongs. Bonding atoms attaina stable electronic configuration and a stable atom generally has eight electrons in itsvalence shell.

➢ To attain a stable configuration, atoms share their electrons with each other.
