Chapter MS, Problem 24PQ
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The statement that identifies preferred structure has to be determined. Also, reason for same has to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

The diagrams that represent type of bonding between atoms in molecule and number of lone pairs present in molecule are known as Lewis electron-dot structures. Such structures are also known as Lewis dot diagrams, Lewis dot formulas or Lewis structures.

Formal charge is charge occupied by atom in molecule with consideration that chemical bonds are equally shared equally between two atoms, irrespective of their electronegativities.

The formula to calculate formal charge on an atom is as follows:

  Formal charge = [(Total number of valence electrons in the free atom) (Total number of non-bonding electrons)(Total number of bonding electrons)2]        (1)

Under aqueous basic conditions, nitriles will react to form a neutral organic intermediate 1 that has an N atom in it first, and then they will continue to react to form the final product 2: NC H₂O он- H₂O 1 2 OH Draw the missing intermediate 1 and the final product 2 in the box below. You can draw the two structures in any arrangement you like. Click and drag to start drawing a structure.
