Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The lone pair which is shown in the first four rows of the given figure should be identified.

Concept Introduction:

In a planetary model of an atom, negatively charged electrons are arranged around the positively charged electron in a series of shells which is like orbits.

The electrons present in the outermost energy level or shell are known as valence electrons. These electrons are available for bonding and the outermost shell is known as valence shell.

The general valence shell representation is shown as:

Follow the curved arrows and draw a Lewis structure for the resulting resonance contributor of 1,3-butadiene, adding charges and lone electron pairs to the appropriate atoms. CH2
For 1 and 2, use curved arrows to illustrate the potential overall electron movements or bond changes, and identify the type of reaction by examining the overall chemical transformation. Show A-H bonds as needed.
Read This! The attractive and repulsive forces in an atom are rather complex. An electron is attracted to the protons in the nucleus, but it is also repelled by the other electrons in the atom. It is important to note however that the attractive force of the nucleus is NOT divided up among the electrons in the atom. Each electron gets approximately the full attractive force of the nucleus (minus the repulsive effects of other electrons). Compare the diagram below to set D in Model 3. Notice the similarity in attractive force. 0.10 nm 0.10 nm approx. 4.60 x 10-8 (on each electron) Model 4 – Period 3 Elements Aluminum Chlorine Sodium What does it MEAN? What do you WONDER?
