Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The type of bonding electron domain should be identified for each molecule in given figure.
Concept Introduction:
The bonding electron domain is defined as the shared valence electrons (2, 4, or 6 electrons) which are localized between two core atoms.
This is classified as follows:
Single bond: two electrons or 1 pair;
Double bond: four electrons or 2 pairs;
Triple bond: six electrons or 3 pairs.
The non-bonding electron domain is defined as the pair of valence electrons which are not involved in bonding.
(b)
Interpretation:
The number of electrons present in each bonding electron domain should be reported.

- b. Compare the experimental bond length data shown below with your Lewis Structure drawing. Describe any discrepancies that you notice between the two structures.arrow_forwardPlease help part c,d,e,f,g and harrow_forwardOn the left side of Figure 3.6, label the areas shown with a dotted line where... one bond can form. one bond can form.arrow_forward
- Please hello answe this questionarrow_forwardI am slightly confused on how to do this. I think I figured it out but I just want to compare data and take notes on what I have done incorrectly.arrow_forwardGive typed full explanation Look at figure 3-22 that shows the electron density that occurs abound the Si-O bond. This electron density map gives the "shape" of the O and Si atoms when they are bonded together. Think about the answer in Q9 and choose the best response below: (Select answer choice) a. This figure shows that the Si and O atoms, when they bond together, do not form spheres, which is due to the fact that the Si-O bond is strongly covalent and these shared electrons affect atomic shape. This change in shape limits the applicability of Pauling's Coordination principle since that principle is based on the geometry of perfect spheres. b. This figure shows that the Si and O atoms, when they bond together are close to perfect spheres, which is due to the fact that the Si-O bond is strongly covalent. This figure shows that Pauling's Coordination principle should apply very precisely to any substance that contains Si-O bonds c. This figure shows that the Si and O atoms, form in a…arrow_forward

The model is only geometry and 3D shape of the molecule.arrow_forward???arrow_forward
