Question
Chapter 13, Problem 69E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The Lewis structure for methyl isocyanate needs to be drawn including the resonance forms.
Concept Introduction: In a Lewis structure, the atoms are arranged in such a way that all the atoms have complete octets. The total number of valence electrons is first calculated in all the atoms present in the molecule whose Lewis structure needs to be drawn. The skeleton is made in such a way that most electronegative atom is always placed at terminal position. The total number of electrons is distributed in all the atoms such that all the atoms have complete octet.

Draw the Lewis structures for each and predict the molecular structures. Predict the bond angles and the polarity of each. (A polar molecule has a net dipole moment, while a nonpolar molecule does not.) See Exercises 25 and 26 for the molecular structures based on the trigonal bipyramid and the octahedral geometries.arrow_forwardWrite all resonance structures of chlorobenzene, C6H5Cl, a molecule with the same cyclic structure as benzene.

- Formamide, HC(O)NH2, is prepared at high pressures from carbon monoxide and ammonia, and serves as an industrial solvent (the parentheses around the O indicate that it is bonded only to the carbon atom and that the carbon atom is also bonded to the H and the N atoms). Two resonance forms (one with formal charges) can be written for formamide. Write both resonance structures, and predict the bond angles about the carbon and nitrogen atoms for each resonance form. Are they the same? Describe how the experimental determination of the HNH bond angle could be used to indicate which resonance form is more important.arrow_forwardConsider the pyrosulfate ion, S2O72-.
