Chapter 3, Problem 3.77P

3-77 Ozone, O3, is an unstable blue gas with a characteristic pungent odor. In an ozone molecule, the connectivity of the atoms is O−O−O and both O−O bonds are equivalent.

(a) How many valence electrons must be present in an acceptable Lewis structure for an ozone molecule?

(b) Write two equivalent resonance contributing structures for ozone. Be certain to show any positive or negative charges that may be present in your contributing structures. By equivalent contributing structures, we mean that each has the same pattern of bonding.

(c) Show by the use of curved arrows how the first of your contributing structures may be converted to the second.

(d) Based on your contributing structures, predict the O−O−O bond angle in ozone.

(e) Explain why the following is not an acceptable contributing structure for an ozone molecule:

3. How many valence electrons are in a C atom? an Cl atom? (a) Write the full Lewis structure for the CH2C2 molecule. Show all lone pairs. Pert (b) Write the geometric structure for the CH2CI2 molecule and name the geometry. (c) Determine if the CH2CI2 molecule has polar or nonpolar bonds using the following electronegativity: C = 2.5, H = 2.1, CI = 3.0. Re-draw the geometric structure below, but this time include partial charges and dipole arrows for any polar bonds present. Justify your assignments for polar or nonpolar bonds.
Answer true or false. (a) According to the Lewis model of bonding, atoms bond together in such a way that each atom par- ticipating in the bond acquires an outer-shell electron configuration matching that of the noble gas nearest to it in atomic number. (b) Atoms that lose electrons to achieve a filled valence shell become cations and form ionic bonds with anions. (c) Atoms that gain electrons to achieve filled valence shells become anions and form ionic bonds with cations. (d) Atoms that share electrons to achieve filled valence shells form covalent bonds. (e) Ionic bonds tend to form between elements on the left side of the Periodic Table, and covalent bonds tend to form between elements on the right side of the Periodic Table. (f) Ionic bonds tend to form between a metal and a nonmetal. (g) When two nonmetals combine, the bond between them is usually covalent. (h) Electronegativity is a measure of an atom’s attrac- tion for the electrons it shares in a chemical bond with another…
