a.
To determine:
The shape of the molecule dimethylether around the orange-colored atoms.
Introduction:
The shape of the molecule is not directly related with the formula of a compound. The shapes of the molecules are predicted from the Lewis structures, or with the model developed known as the valence-shell electron-pair repulsion (VSEPR) theory.
b.
To determine:
The shape of the molecule ethylene around the orange-colored atoms.
Introduction:
The shape of the molecule is not directly related with the formula of a compound. The shapes of the molecules are predicted from the Lewis structures, or with the model developed known as the valence-shell electron-pair repulsion (VSEPR) theory.

- What is the geometric sanctum of the ammonia molecule? How many pairs of electrons surround the nitrogen atom in NH3? What is the approximate HNHbond angle in ammonia?arrow_forwardBased on the Lewis structures for hydrogen and helium, explain why buoyant balloons are filled with helium instead of hydrogen gas, even though hydrogen gas is cheaper and more buoyant. HHe:: a. Helium's duet makes it stable and inert (unreactive). b. Helium's duet makes it unstable and chemically reactive. c. Helium has one more electron than hydrogen, which helps add color to the balloon.arrow_forwardHydrogen gas and oxygen gas react violently to form water. When this occurs, a very loud noise is heard. Draw the Lewis structures for hydrogen gas, oxygen gas, and water. State whether each molecule is polar or nonpolar and why. Explain how the polarity of these molecules is related to hydrogen and oxygen existing in the gas phase at room temperature and water existing in the liquid phase at room temperature. Which is lower in energy for this reaction a mixture of hydrogen and oxygen gases or water? How do you know this is true?arrow_forward
