Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The structure formula with all valence electrons is required for given compound- Dimethyl ether (CH3OCH3).

Concept Introduction:

With the help of Lewis model, we can understand the structure formula as well as number of valence electrons of atom present in molecule. Lewis model provide details about the covalent bond present in between atoms like single bond, double bond or triple bond. A covalent bond is formed between the atoms which have electronegativity less than 1.9 and have pairs of electron for sharing.

Answer to Problem 10.18P

The structural formula of Dimethyl ether with valence electrons is described as below:

  • Dimethyl ether has two groups of methyl (- CH3) which are joined together with oxygen atom.
  • Oxygen can form two covalent bonds which are with carbon atom present in methyl group and have two unshared pair of electrons represented as two dots over symbol of oxygen.
  • Carbon atom of both methyl groups completes its octet by forming three covalent single bonds with hydrogen atoms and one single bond with oxygen atom. So no valence electron left in carbon atom for further bond formation.
  • Hydrogen atom has one covalent bond capacity which is fulfilled by forming single covalent bond with carbon atom.

Explanation of Solution

The structure of any atom is prepared with the help of Lewis model which explains guideline for bonding of atom. It guides about the covalent bonds which are formed in various combinations of single, double and triple bonds.

Single covalent bond occurs by sharing one pair of electrons whereas double and triple bonds are formed when two and three pairs of electrons are shared in between atoms respectively.

For several covalent bonds in organic compound containing carbon bonded to hydrogen, nitrogen, chlorine and oxygen shows some important points to be noted for structure are as follow:

  1. Carbon forms four covalent bonds while hydrogen form one covalent bond and both has no unshared pair of electrons.
  2. Three covalent bonds are formed in nitrogen atom with only one unshared pair of electron left behind.
  3. Oxygen can form two covalent bonds and have further more two unshared pair of electron.
  4. Iodine, chlorine, bromine and fluorine like halogens can form only one covalent bond like hydrogen but they have three unshared pair of electrons.
