- carbon tetrachloride was formerly used in fire extinguishers for electrical fires.it is no longer used for this purpose because of the formation of the toxic gas phosgene,CL2CO.wRITE THE LEWIS STRUCTURES for the methane and ethane molecules.arrow_forwardwe would predict that the imaginary ionic compound XF would have a (higher /lower) lattice energy than YyF2 becausearrow_forwardAn ionic compound has the following composition (by mass): Ca, 30.3%; N, 21.2%; O, 48.5%. What are the formula and name of the compound? Write the Lewis formulas for the ions.arrow_forward
- A liquid compound used in dry cleaning contains 14.5% C and 85.5% Cl by mass and has a molecular mass of 166 amu. Write the Lewis formula for the molecule.arrow_forwardThe study of carbon-containing compounds and their properties is called organic chemistry. Besides carbon atoms, organic compounds also can contain hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen atoms (as well as other types of atoms). A common trait of simple organic compounds is to have Lewis structures where all atoms have a formal charge of zero. Consider the following incomplete Lewis structure for an organic compound called histidine (an amino acid), which is one of the building blocks of proteins found in our bodies: Draw a complete Lewis structure for histidine in which all atoms have a formal charge of zero.arrow_forwardWrite all resonance structures of chlorobenzene, C6H5Cl, a molecule with the same cyclic structure as benzene. In all structures, keep the CCl bond as a single bond. Which resonance structures are the most important?arrow_forward
