Question
Chapter 10, Problem 36E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Whether each of the given compounds is represented by an ionic or covalent Lewis structure is to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Lewis model represents the molecules by the electron dot model which is based on the octet rule.
In ionic compounds, octet configuration is attained by the loss and gain of electrons.
In covalent compounds, octet configuration is acquired by sharing of electrons between the constituent atoms.
