(a)
Interpretation:
The electron-dot structure of the given structure is to be drawn and described.
Concept introduction:
The electron dot structures can be described as the structure in which electrons are represented around the atoms in the molecule.
In the resonance structure, the electrons are moved towards the more electronegative atoms and more positive charges. The arrow will be originated from pi electrons or unshared pair of electrons and move towards the more electronegative atoms and positive charges.

- Which elements on the periodic table (other than H) are likely to form a+1 cation?arrow_forwardConsidering only ions with charges of 1+,2+,1, and 2 or neutral atoms, give the symbols for four species that are isolectronic with the chloride ion, Cl.arrow_forwardUse Table 4.4 and classify the bonds in the following compounds as nonpolar covalent, polar covalent, or ionic: a. MgI2 each I is bonded to Mg b. NCl3 each Cl is bonded to N c. H2S each H is bonded to S d. RbF e. SrOarrow_forward
- C4H10O is the formula of diethyl ether. The same group of atoms is attached on either side of the oxygen atom. Draw the Lewis diagram. Diethyl ether was among the first anesthetics used in surgery, but it has been largely replaced by safer anesthetics today.arrow_forwardFor resonance structures, I am confused how many arrows are necessary to produce a necessary resonance structure. The first/white picture represents an example given by the textbook (utilizing one arrow). The second picture/in pen is my own work (utilizing three arrows). Both produce a positive and negative charge. Are they both correct? Or is one supposed to use the least amount of arrows when producing resonance structures?arrow_forward
