(a)
Interpretation:
Interpret the main group in which X belongs in given figure a with Lewis structure by providing an example.
Concept introduction:
Lewis dot structure is the representation which shows the bonding between atoms present in a molecule. It shows lone pairs and bond pairs that existing on each bonded atom.
Lewis dot structure is also known as Lewis dot formula or electron dot structure. The bond formation between the atoms takes place due to the sharing of valence electrons of bonded atoms while the remaining electrons present in outer shell represented as lone pair of electrons.
The bond formation between the atoms takes place due to the sharing of valence electrons between them while the remaining outer electron denoted as lone pair of electrons.

- The Lewis structure of acetone is Circling the carbonyl carbon, i.e., the carbon atom attached to oxygen, and its octet gives Circling the oxygen atom and its octet gives Thus, atoms share electrons in making bonds, and a pair of electrons may be included in the octet of two different atoms. When computing the formal charge on an atom, the number of electrons that belong to that atom is compared with the number of electrons the atom would have in the unbonded and neutral state. If the two numbers are the same, the formal charge on the atom is zero. In a Lewis structure both electrons in an unshared pair belong to the atom, and one of every pair of shared (bonding) electrons belongs to the atom.arrow_forwardWhat is the most polar bond in the molecule?arrow_forwardCould someone help me?? The answer to this question must look similar to the example attached. Back ground info: Atoms of different elements combine with one another to form compounds. It is important to be able to explain how atoms actually come together to form these compounds or chemical bonds. One of the three types of bonds is an ionic bond which is a bond between a metal atom and a nonmetal atom, or a cation and an anion. The Octet Rule is the driving force behind ionic bond formation. The octet rule refers to the tendency of atoms to prefer to have eight electrons in the valence shell. When atoms have fewer than eight electrons, they tend to react and form more stable compounds. When discussing the octet rule, we do not consider d or f electrons. Only the s and p electrons are involved in the octet rule, making it useful for the main group elements (elements not in the transition metal or inner-transition metal blocks); an octet in these atoms corresponds to an electron…arrow_forward
