Chapter 10, Problem 10.29UKC

a.

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The complete structure with all atoms and lone pairs of given compound ${{\text{(CH}}_{\text{3}}\text{)}}_{\text{2}}{\text{CH(CH}}_{\text{2}}{\text{)}}_{\text{6}}{\text{CH}}_{\text{3}}$ has to be drawn.

Concept Introduction:

BOND LINE STRUCTURE:

The bond line structure is a simple way of representing a structure of carbon compound.  Bonding of atom is represented by lines.

LEWIS STRUCTURE:

The bonds have to be drawn between atoms and the lone pair of electron present in a compound.  It is otherwise known as Lewis dot diagram.

OCTET RULE:

The atoms share or lose or gain electrons to satisfy nearest electronic configuration of noble gases.  The compound should be surrounded by eight valence electrons to form octet.

b.
