How do you know when to draw a solid wedge vs a dashed wedge when drawing 3D bond-line structures? I know that solid-wedge means the atom is pointing towards you and dashed wedge means it's in the back, but how do you know which atoms are in the front as opposed to the back? How can you tell what the configuration will look like in space just by looking at the lewis structure or name?
Following is a structural formula of the prescription drug famotidine, marketed by McNeil Consumer Pharmaceuticals Co. under the name Pepcid. The primary clinical use of Pepcid is for the treatment of active duodenal ulcers and benign gastric ulcers. Pepcid is a competitive inhibitor of histamine H2 receptors that reduces both gastric acid concentration and the volume of gastric secretions.
Q. Complete the Lewis structure of famotidine showing all valence electrons and any formal positive or negative charges.
High oil and gasoline prices have renewed interest in alternative methods of producing energy, including the “clean” burning of coal. Part ofwhat makes “dirty” coal dirty is its high sulfur content. Burning dirty coal produces sulfur dioxide (SO2), among other pollutants. Sulfurdioxide is oxidized in the atmosphere to form sulfur trioxide (SO3), which subsequently combines with water to produce sulfuric acid—amajor component of acid rain. Draw all possible resonance structures of sulfur trioxide.
