Chapter 2, Problem 16E

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:Whether there is any box in the table in model 5 having N atom with zero bonds and 3 lone pairs.

Concept introduction:Losing 1 electron around an atom from its ground state gives a +1 formal charge to that atom. Adding extra electron to an atom will give a negative charge to the atom.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: Whether there is any box in the table in model 5 having O atom with 3 bonds and zero lone pairs.

Concept introduction: Losing 1 electron around an atom from its ground state gives a +1 formal charge to that atom. Adding extra electron to an atom will give a negative charge to the atom.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The reasons for the statement being true should be explained.

Concept introduction: Losing 1 electron around an atom from its ground state gives a +1 formal charge to that atom. Adding extra electron to an atom will give a negative charge to the atom. The occurrence of formal charges can be determined by counting the number of bonds & lone pair.

3. The following shows all resonance structures for the following molecule. a. Draw in all implied lone pairs. b. Draw in curved arrows that show the flow of electrons, making sure the arrows show the precise starting point and destination of the electrons. Label each arrow as: lp →→→л (p=lone pair) c. d. Rank the resonance structures from most stable to least based on the number of formal charges and atoms that lack an octet of electrons. ol-of-o. B A D d-d-d-o E C F G
3. Circle the TWO true statements relative to the structure shown? (Assume enough lone pairs to satisfy octet rule for each atom; but there are some formal charges.) a. b. For lone pairs, O(1) would have two; N(2) one; and O(3) two For lone pairs, O(1) would have two; N(2) none; and O(3) three C. For lone pairs, O(1) would have one; N(2) one; and O(3) three d. For formal charges, O(1) would be neutral; N(2) cation; and O(3) anion e. For formal charges, O(1) would be neutral; N(2) neutral; and O(3) anion f. For formal charges, O(1) would be anion; N(2) cation; and O(3) neutral 1 HO 2 NH3
