(a)
Interpretation:
Lone pair has to be identified, lone pairs are delocalized or not have to be indicated and also geometry has to be predicted.
Concept Introduction:
The unshared electrons of an atom that does not involve in bonding are called lone pair.
Resonance is an electron displacement effect for stabilizing a molecule through delocalization of bonding electrons in the pi orbital.
Delocalized electrons stabilize a compound. The extra stability gains from having delocalized electrons are called resonance stabilization or resonance energy.
The steric number is the combination of both number of
The geometry of the central atom will be determined by counting the steric number followed by the hybridization state of that central atom and finally electronic arrangement of atoms in space.
If the steric number is 4, the central atom is sp3 hybridized and the electronic arrangement of atoms in space (i.e. geometry) will be tetrahedral.
If the steric number is 3, the central atom is sp2 hybridized and the electronic arrangement of atoms in space (i.e. geometry) will be trigonal planar.
If the steric number is 2, the central atom is sp hybridized and the electronic arrangement of atoms in space (i.e. geometry) will be linear.
trigonal pyramidal(if one lone pair of electron is present).
bent geometry (if two lone pair of electrons are present).

We will derive the forms of the molecular partition functions for atoms and molecules shortly in class, but the partition function that describes the translational and rotational motion of a homonuclear diatomic molecule is given by Itrans (V,T) = = 2πmkBT h² V grot (T) 4π²IKBT h² Where h is Planck's constant and I is molecular moment of inertia.
