1,2-ethanediol into 1,2 ethenediol (HOCHCHOH) by removing one hydrogen atom from each carbon atom and replacing with a double bond between the carbon atoms. Be sure to add the second rod to represent the double bond. Draw a Lewis structure for 1,2-ethenediol. A. Identify the electron-pair and molecular geometry around each carbon and oxygen atom. B. What are the bond angles for H-C-C? For C-C-O? For C-O-H? C. Draw two different structures of the molecule in which the –OH group on the two carbon atoms occupy different orientations with respect to each other.
