Chapter 1.11, Problem 25PTS
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The correct geometry of a carbocation and carbanion needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction: The arrangement of electron pairs is identified according to VSEPR (Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion) theory wherein all the electron pairs are aligned in such a way that they are at maximum distance from each other. The structure of every molecule in VSEPR is explained by considering the steric number (combination of lone pairs and
