Question
Chapter 1, Problem 11EQ
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The number of electrons contributed by each atom and the total number of electrons in the given structure is to be calculated.
Concept Introduction:
The electrons present in the valance shell are called as valance electrons. A single bond is formed by involving two valance electrons. The valance electrons which are not involved in bonding are called as lone pair of electrons and they are usually represented as dots over the atom.
