Chapter 1, Problem 34P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:The Lewis structure of Cl atom and Cl- ion needs to be drawn and number of electrons, charge, nature of bond and geometry needs to be compared.

Concept Introduction: Lewis dot structure is also known as Lewis dot formula or electron dot structure. The bond formation between the atoms takes place due to the sharing of valence electrons of bonded atoms while the remaining electrons present in outer shell represented as lone pair of electrons.

The hybridization gives idea about the geometry of each atom. It can be checked with the below formula:

Hybridization = Number of sigma bonds + Number of lone pairs on bonded atoms.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:The Lewis structure of PH3 and BH3 needs to be drawn and number of electrons, charge, nature of bond and geometry needs to be compared.

1-How many total shared electrons are there in the Lewis structure of CS2? a.10 b.6 c.2 d.8 e.4 2-In which bond does the Cl atom have the highest electron density, i.e. it attracts the electrons in the covalent bonds the most? a.N—Cl b.H—Cl c.O—Cl d.S—Cl e.Br—Cl
Consider the SO 3 molecule. How many valence electrons does the molecule have?   How many lone pairs of electrons are on the central atom?   How many lone pairs of electrons in total are on the substituent atoms?   How many resonance structures can be drawn for the molecule?  If the ion doesn't exhibit resonance, indicate "1" as only one structure can be drawn for the molecule.
