Textbook Question
Chapter 10, Problem 16P
10-22 Suppose you forget to take into account the presence of the unshared pair of electrons on nitrogen in the molecule NH3. What would you then predict for the H—N—H bond angles and the geometry (bond angles and shape) of ammonia?

Predict whether the carbon-metal bond in these organometallic compounds is non-
polar covalent, polar covalent, or ionic. For each polar covalent bond, show the direction
of its polarity using the symbols 8+ and 8-.
Draw the line-bond structure of oleic acid (cis-9-octadecenoic acid), CH3(CH2)7CH=CH(CH2)7COOH, at physiological pH. You do not need to draw hydrogen atoms attached to carbon atoms.
CTQ 7: Why is it incorrect to describe the process of boiling as
2H,0(1)
→ 2H,(g) + 0,(g)?
