The compound XeCl2F2 can exist in two different forms. One form is polar and the other form is non-polar. Draw a valid Lewis structure of XeCl2F2. Then, draw two 3-dimensional representations of this molecule (including all lone pairs); one that shows the polar form with a correct dipole arrow and the other that shows the non-polar form of the molecule.
n your lab notebook, draw the "correct" (or best) Lewis structure for the molecule CH2CO.
Now, answer the following questions about this molecule.
What is the total number of valence electrons represented in the Lewis structure of this molecule (or molecular ions)?
How many lone-pairs of electrons are on the C atom?
How many (σ) sigma bonds does this molecule have?
For each of the following molecules, draw the correct Lewis structure, label each polar covalent bond with a dipole moment arrow, and determine if the molecule is polar or non-polar.
CH3Br
HI
SiO2
CH2O
