Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The molecular formula for the given ball and stick model of the molecule needs to be determined.

General Chemistry: Principles and Modern Applications - With Solutions Manual and Modified MasteringChemistry Code, Chapter 3, Problem 1E , additional homework tip  1

Concept introduction:

The ball and stick model of a chemical substance is defined as a molecular model that displays the 3-D position of the atoms and bonds present between them. In the ball and stick model, the atoms are represented as balls or sphere where different atoms are shown by different colors and bonds are represented by sticks drawn between the atoms. The double and triple bonds are shown by drawing 2 and 3 sticks (curved rod) respectively between the atoms.
