Interpretation:
To justify whether the given statement is true or false.
Concept Introduction:
The structure formula is the representation of the position of its atoms present in molecules along with the bonds which are present in between the atoms of molecule. There are two model which can help to detemine the sturcture of molecule.
- Lewis Model
- VSEPR Model- The valence-shell electron-pair repulsion model

Introduction to General, Organic and Biochemistry
- What is organic chemistry? Identify how many covalent bonds each one of the following elements normally forms: Carbon: Nitrogen: Oxygen: Hydrogen: Halogens (F, Cl, Br, etc.):arrow_forwardComplete the Lewis structure of each compound by showing all unshared electron pairs.arrow_forwardSketch the hydrogen bond(s) that form between two molecules of ethanol and one nitrogen trihydride molecule and one dihydrogen monoxide molecule. Show the proper VSEPR shapes of all molecules (meaning VSEPR shapes with proper bond angles) and used dotted or dashed lines to indicate the hydrogen bonds. Indicate 4 different H-bonds: 1) ethanol and nitrogen trihydride 2) ethanol and dihydrogen monoxide 3) dihydrogen monoxide and nitrogen trihydride and then 4) between the two ethanol molecules.arrow_forward
- what is the term used to describe organic reactions in which each atom of a diatomic molecule is transferred to one of the carbons in a double bond?arrow_forwardMany reactions involve a change in hybridization of one or more atoms in the starting material. In following reaction, identify the atoms in the organic starting material that change hybridization and indicate the change.arrow_forwardtrue or falsearrow_forward
- Use VSEPR to predict bond angles about each atom of carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen in these molecules.arrow_forwardThese two different C2H6O compounds are called structural (or constitutional) isomers - compounds with the same molecular formula but with different connections among their constituent atoms. If you must break and make new bonds in order to convert one structure into the other (not simply rotate the model around), then they are structural isomers. The concept of isomers is very important in organic chemistry and biochemistry. This is also another instance where condensed formulas can be very useful because they can help you distinguish two isomers apart even when you don't have models. Exercise 8) Can your models be interconverted by rotating bonds, or must the bonds be broken first? What does that mean about these two structures?arrow_forwardIn terms of organic chemistry how do you know if an atom has ionic bonds or covalent bonds and how do you know if it has just one of these or if it has both? Could you provide some examples of what an ionic bond looks like, covalent bond looks like, and what an atom would look like with both of these?arrow_forward
- Use the VSEPR model to predict the bond angles around each central atom in the following Lewis structures (benzene rings are frequently pictured as hexagons, without the letter for the carbon atom at each vertex). Note that the drawings do not necessarily depict the bond angles correctly.arrow_forwardHow many electron pairs are shared when a triple bond exists between two carbon atoms? What must he the geometric arrangement around the carbon atoms in a triple bond? Draw the Lewis structure of a simple molecule that contains a triple bond.arrow_forwardOne family of disinfection byproducts that result from the reaction of chloramines with natural organic matter in water are called the halomethanes. These are molecules where the hydrogen atoms in methane (CH4) have been replaced with atoms from group 7 of the periodic table (i.e. halogens). Draw and submit pictures of the Lewis structures for each of the following halomethanes: CH3Cl CCI CBrCizarrow_forward
