The molecular structure of hinokitiol is represented below (See attached image)
Draw a complete Lewis structure of the molecule and answer the following questions.
Complete the structure by adding ONLY hydrogen atoms to carbon atoms where needed. You must not create any other bonds. Atoms such as oxygen or nitrogen may have lone pairs to complete their octets.
Each of the non-hydrogen atoms of this skeletal structure has been randomly numbered.
Match the atom number with the orbital hybridization invoked for sigma bonding.
Match these to the below (A)) (Options: sp3, sp2, sp, s, p, d2sp3, dsp3)
A) 12, 9, 7, 2, 4
B) How many pairs of non-bonding electrons are there in the molecule?
C) How many CH3 (methyl) groups are there in the molecule?
D) How many CH2 (methylene) groups are there in the molecule? (i.e. # of C-atoms having exactly two bonded H-atoms)
E) How many CH (methyne) groups are there in the molecule? (i.e. # of C-atoms having exactly one bonded H-atom)
F) How many…
How can the VSEPR model be used to predict the hybridization of an atom in a molecule? Answer by selecting all true statements.
O The bonding orientation predicted by the VSEPR model matches the orientation predicted using hybrid orbitals.
O For a given atom in a molecule, the number of non-bonding electron domains predicted by the VSEPR model translates into
the same number of hybrid orbitals.
O The shape of the electron domains around the central atom is used to predict the hybridization of the atom.
O Once the number of electron domains has been correctly predicted from the VSEPR model, only one type of hybrid orbital
set will "match".
