Chapter 10, Problem 10.71P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Lewis structures for chloral and chloral hydrate is to be drawn. Also, the change in the molecular shape around each carbon in the given compounds are to be determined.

Concept introduction:

The following steps are used to determine the molecular shape of the given molecule.

Step 1: Write the Lewis structure of the given formula and place the atoms.

Step 2: Count all electron groups including bonding and non-bonding pairs around the central atom and use it to assign one of the five electron-group arrangement.

Step 3: Write the ideal bond angle related to the electron-group arrangement and the effect of any deviation can be predicted by using VSEPR.

Step 4: Count the bonding and non-bonding electron groups and draw the molecular shape accordingly.
