- Predict the hybridization, geometry, and bond angles for the carbon and oxygen atoms in acetaldehyde (CH3CHO)arrow_forwardA pair of electrons(s) in the s bond spreads out into empty p orbital, stabilizing electron-deficient carbon atom, the process is known as ________. a) Inductive effect, b) Resonance, c) Hyperconjugation. The carbon atom in dibromocarbene has only ______ electrons in its valence shell with _____ hybridized and ________ geometry. a) Four, sp3, trigonal, b) Five, sp, planar, c) Six, sp2, trigonal, d) Five, sp3, planar.arrow_forwardwhat does a benzene C6H6 look like in a model? Is it linear, trigonal planar or tetrahedral? What are the bond angles? Is it flexible or rigid?arrow_forward
- Which of the following statements is untrue about the identity of the molecule?I. The molecule bond angles are associated with its sp-hybridized carbon.II. All the atoms are in a straight line where sigma & pi bonding exists.III. The molecule is acetylene having one sigma bond and 2 pi bonds.IV. A linear geometry of the molecule shows a highest bond strength and bond length compared to an alkane and alkene.arrow_forwardWhich statement about organic compounds is false? In organic compounds, carbon typically forms exactly 5 bonds. Organic compounds are primarily composed of carbon atoms. Organic compounds are usually non-polar. Organic compounds are usually insoluble in water. Organic compounds usually have low melting points.arrow_forwardAlcohols A, B and C all have the composition C4H 100. Molecules of alcohol A contain a branched carbon chain and can be oxidized to an aldehyde; molecules of alcohol B contain a linear carbon chain and can be oxidized to a ketone; and molecules of alcohol C can be oxidized to neither an aldehyde nor a ketone. Write the Lewis structures of these molecules.arrow_forward
