- Use the VSEPR model to predict the bond angles around each central atom in the following Lewis structures (benzene rings are frequently pictured as hexagons, without the letter for the carbon atom at each vertex). Note that the drawings do not necessarily depict the bond angles correctly.arrow_forwardIn Chapter 6, we study a group of organic cations called carbocations. Following is the structure of one such carbocation, the tert-butyl cation. (a) How many electrons are in the valence shell of the carbon bearing the positive charge? (b) Using VSEPR, predict the bond angles about this carbon. (c) Given the bond angle you predicted in (b), what hybridization do you predict for this carbon?arrow_forwardEthylene oxide is an intermediate in the manufacture or ethylene glycol (antifreeze) and polyester polymers. More than 4 million tons are produced annually in the United States. The molecule has a three-member ring of two C atoms and an O atom. (a) What are the bond angles in the ring? Comment on the relation between the bond angles expected based on hybridization an d the bond angles expected for a three-member ring. (b) Is the molecule polar? Based on the electrostatic poten1ial map shown below. where do the neg-alive and positive charges lie in the molecule? Polarity: It is a well separation of electric charge leading to a molecule or chemical compounds having an electrical dipole moment. Generally the polar molecules must contain polar bonds due to a different in electronegative between the bonded atoms. The electrostatic potential map clearly to explain, the oxygen atom has more negative () charge and other side has less positive () charge, so this molecule is a more polar nature.arrow_forward
- Classify each of the following statements as true or false: a Molecular geometry around an atom may or may not be the same as electron-pair geometry around the atom. b Electron pair geometry is the direct effect of molecular geometry. c If the geometry of a molecule is linear, the molecule must have at least one double bond. d A molecule with a double bond cannot have trigonal pyramidal geometry around the double bonded atom. e A CO2 molecule is linear, but an SO2 molecule is bent. f A molecule is polar if it contains polar bonds. g A molecule with a central atom that has one lone pair of electrons is always polar. h A molecule with a central atom that has two lone pairs and two bonded pairs of electrons is always polar. i Carbon atoms normally form four bonds. j Hydrogen atoms never form double bonds.arrow_forwardA student who missed this class needs to know how to predict the bond angles and shape of amolecule from looking at its bond-line representation.
