For a molecule of XeCl3H
a) Draw the Lewis structure then predict the shape of the compound and draw the shape of the compound
b) Determine if the molecule is polar or nonpolar and explain how you made that determination. If there is a dipole moment, draw it.
Sodium ethoxide, CH3CH2ONa, contains both ionic and covalent bonds. Draw the Lewis structure of this compound
3. Carbon atoms will bond with each other to form a chain, often with the peripheral atoms being hydrogen. These compounds, hydrocarbons, are organic compounds composed only of carbon and hydrogen. However, when hydrogen atoms are substituted with other elements, such as fluorine, this changes the properties of the molecule. Methylfluoride (CH3F), a substituted hydrocarbon, is used in semiconductor processing. Figure 1 depicts an incorrect Lewis structure for CH3F.
(QUestion shown in photo)
Which reason best explains why this structure is incorrect?
a) Hydrogen lacks an octet.
b) Too few electrons are used.
c) Carbon cannot exceed an octet.
d) Fluorine atom has too many electrons.
