Based on Linus Pauling's electronegativity scale, would H2S be considered a polar molecule?
Pick the best answer.
(a) No. It would technically be considered a non-polar molecule.
(b) No. Even though it contains polar bonds they are symmetrical and therefore H2S is non-polar.
(c) No. The electronegativity difference between H and S is so great that it would be considered an ionic compound.
(d) H2S violates the octet rule and therefore would not even exist
Draw the Lewis structure for the FCF molecule: both F atoms are bonded to the C atom. What is the bonding pattern and the shape around the C atom?
Select one:
A. There are two resonance structures: F–C=F and F=C–F. The shape around the C atom is bent.
B. There are two resonance structures: F–C=F and F=C–F. The shape around the C atom is linear.
C. Two single bonds: F–C–F. The shape around the C atom is bent.
D. Two double bonds: F=C=F. The shape around the C atom is linear.
An unknown element M forms a chloride with the formula MCl3. This chloride compound was examined and found to have a trigonal pyramidal shape. Draw a Lewis structure for MCl3 that is consistent with this molecular geometry. Use your structure to propose an identity for the element M and explain how you have made your choice.

- CH3COCH3 (acetone) is a common laboratory solvent that is often used in nail polish remover. Its Lewis structure and space-filling molecular image are shown here: Acetone is a polar molecule; the oxygen end has a slightly negative charge (oxygen is more electronegative), whereas the carbon and hydrogen end has a slightly positive charge. In liquid acetone, the molecules are attracted to each other via these polar ends-the positive end of one molecule is attracted to the negative end of its neighbor-and therefore align as shown here: Draw a Lewis structure and space-filling molecular image for CH2Cl2 (dichloromethane), another common laboratory solvent.
