Chapter 8, Problem 59QP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The resonating structures of the adenine molecule, with formal charges and lone pairs, are to be represented.

Concept Introduction:

Lewis structure is a representation of the bonding and non-bonding electron pairs present in the outermost shell of all atoms present in the molecule.

The number of bonds formed by an atom in the molecule is determined by the valence electrons pairs.

Draw two different Lewis structures for ClO3-, one which all atoms follow the octet rule and one where the chlorine has an expanded octet. Determine the formal charge on all atoms for each structure. Which do you think is the better Lewis structure? Explain your reasoning.
For the following three Lewis structures, list whether they are correct or incorrect:   alt-text for image above: The first image shows a proposed Lewis structure for Freon-13, CClF3, that has a central carbon singly bonded to a three chlorine atoms and a fluorine atom. Each chlorine and the fluorine have 3 lone pairs of electrons around them. The second image shows a proposed lewis structure for the nitrite ion, NO2-, as a central nitrogen atom between two oxygen atoms. The O atom on the left has three lone pairs of electrons and then a single bond between the N. The right O atom has two lone pairs of electrons and a double bond with the N atom. The N atom has a single lone pair of electrons in addition to the double and single bonds with oxygen atoms. The third image shows diazomethane, CH2N2, and the proposed Lewis structure has a carbon singly bonded to two H atoms, then doubly bonded to a nitrogen. The nitrogen is doubly bonded to the second nitrogen, and the second nitrogen has…
Consider the formate ion, HCO2-, which is the anion formed when formic acid lose an H+ ion. The H and the two O atoms are bonded to the central C atom. a) Draw the best Lewis structure for this ion. b) Are resonance structures needed to describe this structure? c) Would you predict that the C-O bond lengths in the formate ion would be longer or shorter relative to those in CO2?
