Chapter 7, Problem 2QAP
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

Lewis structure for NH3 should be drawn.

Concept introduction:

  • Lewis structures are the diagrams that show the bonding between the atoms of the molecules and existing lone pairs of electrons.
  • Bonding electrons are those electrons which are shared between the atoms resulting in the formation of bond.
  • Non-bonding electrons are the valence electrons of the atom which are not shared with another atom.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

Lewis structure for KrF2 should be drawn.

Concept introduction:

  • Lewis structures are the diagrams that show the bonding between the atoms of the molecules and existing lone pairs of electrons.
  • Bonding electrons are those electrons which are shared between the atoms resulting in the formation of bond.
  • Non-bonding electrons are the valence electrons of the atom which are not shared with another atom.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

Lewis structure for NO+ should be drawn.

Concept introduction:

  • Lewis structures are the diagrams that show the bonding between the atoms of the molecules and existing lone pairs of electrons.
  • Bonding electrons are those electrons which are shared between the atoms resulting in the formation of bond.
  • Non-bonding electrons are the valence electrons of the atom which are not shared with another atom.
  • For a molecule possessing positive charge, the charge is subtracted from the total number of valence electron count.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

Lewis structure for BrO2 should be drawn.

Concept introduction:

  • Lewis structures are the diagrams that show the bonding between the atoms of the molecules and existing lone pairs of electrons.
  • Bonding electrons are those electrons which are shared between the atoms resulting in the formation of bond.
  • Non-bonding electrons are the valence electrons of the atom which are not shared with another atom.
  • For a molecule possessing negative charge, the charge is added to the total number of valence electron count.
