Chapter 9, Problem 3SAQ
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The option corresponding to the correct Lewis structure of magnesium bromide is to be identified.

Concept introduction: Lewis structures, also known as Lewis dot structures, are the diagrams that show bonding between various atoms of a molecule. The valence electrons around an atom are shown by dots. Bonds between atoms are shown by lines and the lone pair of electrons is shown by a pair of dots.

Ionic compound is a compound which is formed by complete transfer of electron from one atom to another. The atom which loses its electron is called a cation and is positively charged. The atom which gains electron is called an anion and is negatively charged. Species possessing charge (positive or negative) are called ions. Hence ions are the constituents of ionic compounds.

To determine: The option corresponding to the correct Lewis structure of magnesium bromide.

Correct answer: The correct option is (c).
