Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The given structures needs to be determined as same or different molecules.
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 sum of valence electrons must be arranged in such a way that all atoms must get octet configuration (8 electrons).
(b)
Interpretation: The hybridization of each C atom in the given structures needs to be determined.

Chemical Principles
- When two carbons having different hybridization are bonded together, the C–C bond contains a slight dipole. In a Csp2–Csp3 bond, what is the direction of the dipole? Which carbon is considered more electronegative?arrow_forwardFor the following descriptions of molecules, draw the Lewis structure (showing all atoms, lone pairs, formal charges) of the molecule and show all bond angles (assuming ideal VSEPR angles). An organic compound with the molecular formula H3CNO2. C is sp2 hybridized, N is sp3 hybridized, one O is sp² hybridized, while the second O is sp3 hybridized. An organic compound with the molecular formula H2CNO*. Both C and O are sp hybridized while N is sp³ hybridized.arrow_forwardDimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) has been used as an anti-inflammatory rub for racehorses. DMSO and acetone appear to have similar structures, but the C“O carbon atom in acetone is planar, while the S“O sulfur atom in DMSO ispyramidal. Draw Lewis structures for DMSO and acetone, predict the hybridizations and explain these observations.arrow_forward
