3) The molecule diphosphorus tetraoxide (P,O,) has two central atoms and four different resonance structures that do not violate the octet rule. Draw two of these resonance structures below. 4) The compound acetone is a common solvent. It has a chemical formula of CH,COCH, Acetone has three central atoms. (a) Draw the Lewis Dot structure for acetone. (b) Give the Ideal Bond Angle for all three central atoms. 5) Four covalent molecules are drawn below. :o: H. H-CH H H (1) (2) (3) (4) a) Define each of these molecules as polar or non-polar. (1) (2) (3) b) Describe the type of intermolecular force that each molecule would use: (1) (2) (3) (4)
Some chemists believe that satisfaction of the octet rule should be the top criterion for choosing the dominant Lewis structure of a molecule or ion. Other chemists believe that achieving the best formal charges should be the top criterion. Consider the dihydrogen phosphate ion, HaPO, , in which the H atoms are bonded to O atoms. (a) What is the predicted dominant Lewis structure if satisfying the octet rule is the top eriterion? (b) What is the predicted dominant Lewis structure if achieving the best formal charges is the top criterion?
A common form of elemental phosphorus is the tetrahedralP4 molecule, where all four phosphorus atoms areequivalent: At room temperature phosphorus is a solid. (a) Are there anylone pairs of electrons in the P4 molecule? (b) How manyP¬P bonds are there in the molecule? (c) Draw a Lewisstructure for a linear P4 molecule that satisfies the octet rule.Does this molecule have resonance structures? (d) On thebasis of formal charges, which is more stable, the linear moleculeor the tetrahedral molecule?
