Question
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

If you must break and make new bonds in order to convert one structure into the other (not simply rotate the model around), then they are structural isomers. The concept of isomers is very important in organic chemistry and biochemistry. This is also another instance where condensed formulas can be very useful because they can help you distinguish two isomers apart even when you don't have models. Exercise 8) Can your models be interconverted by rotating bonds, or must the bonds be broken first? What does that mean about these two structures?arrow_forward
- Draw the Lewis structures for the following molecules. For each molecule, determine its (a) electronic geometry, (b) number of nonbonding domains on the central atom, and (c) polarity of the molecule. Remember, that molecules that have zero nonbonding domains on the central atom AND have all of the outer atoms the same are NONPOLAR. Generally, molecules with different outer atoms or with more than one nonbonding domain are POLAR. However, these may be NONPOLAR ONLY IF the dipoles cancel each other due to a symmetrical arrangement.
