How does the Lewis model for covalent bonding account for why certain combinations of atoms are stable while others are not?
The terms purely covalent and polar covalent are used to describe covalent bonds. Explain the difference between these two terms:
Write two resonance structures for the formate ion, HCO2‒. (The hydrogen and both oxygen atoms are bonded to the carbon.)
What do these structures predict about the carbon-oxygen bond lengths of the formate ion?
What do these structures predict about the electrical charge on the oxygen atoms?
