Chapter 2, Problem 14Q
Assuming that the octet rule applies, draw the Lewis structure for each of these molecules.
- a. CCl4 (carbon tetrachloride, a substance formerly used as a cleaning agent)
- b. H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide, a mild disinfectant; the atoms are bonded in this order: H─O─O─H)
- c. H2S (hydrogen sulfide, a gas with the unpleasant odor of rotten eggs)
- d. N2 (nitrogen gas, the major component of the atmosphere)
- e. HCN (hydrogen cyanide, a molecule found in space and a poisonous gas)
- f. N2O (nitrous oxide, “laughing gas”; the atoms are bonded N─N─O)
- g. CS2 (carbon disulfide, used to kill rodents; the atoms are bonded S─C─S)
