Question
Chapter 2, Problem 8CTQ
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation : Whether both structures of carbon dioxide in Model 2 are legitimate structures or not should be discussed.
Concept Introduction : A legitimate Lewis structure is an electron dot and line bond representation in which the total number of valence electrons is indicated. The number of valence electrons around hydrogen is two. The number of valence electrons around carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine atom is eight. This is called the octet rule.

Asap
A molecule of chloroform, CHCl3, has the same shape as a molecule of methane, CH4. However, methane’s boiling point is -164 degreeC and chloroform’s boiling point is 62 degree C. Explain the difference in boiling points, using 3D Lewis Structures to aid your simple explanation.
In the boxes below. Draw 3 resonance structures for the molecule attached in the image. Then circle the best one out of all 3.
Draw the lewis structure of SO2 ( best resonance) and 2nd best resonance showing the shape and bond angles of each one, the 3D structure with polar bonds or bonds dipole of each one and the molecular polarity.
Here is an example of what I want the answer to be like:
