atom is zero identifying the bond angles (Draw it BIG!).
b) Identify the hybridization about each atom (not H) forming a bond
c) How many o or π bonds are there in this molecule
d) The combustion of the hydrocarbon produces carbon dioxide and water in
the gaseous state. Use average bond enthalpies to determine enthalpy of
reaction
Is it possible to draw a resonance structure with the lone pair? What is the hybridization of the heteroatom? Draw a valence bond orbital diagram to show the location of the lone pair (you do not need to draw any orbitals to show s bonds). In what orbital are the electron pairs located?
