Chapter 6, Problem 72QRT
The C—Br bond length in CBr4 is 191 pm; the Br—Br distance in Br2 is 228 pm. Estimate the radius of a C atom in CBr4. Use this value to estimate the C—C distance in ethane, H3C—CH3. How does your calculated bond length agree with the measured value of 154 pm? Are radii of atoms exactly the same in every molecule?

This is the best possible structure. The Lewis structure above does not minimize formal charges, thus is the not the best possible structure. The nitrogen atom has an expanded octet, and this structure is impossible. The Lewis structure contains the wrong number of electrons, thus this structure is impossible.arrow_forward
