Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The given structures needs to be determined as same or different molecules.
Concept Introduction:
Lewis dot structure is the representation which shows the bonding between atoms present in a molecule. It shows lone pairs and bond pairs that existing on each bonded atom. Lewis dot structure is also known as Lewis dot formula or electron dot structure.
The sum of valence electrons must be arranged in such a way that all atoms must get octet configuration (8 electrons).
(b)
Interpretation: The hybridization of each C atom in the given structures needs to be determined.
