Question

Transcribed Image Text:a) Draw Lewis structures for each of the compounds below. Be sure to show
all bonding and non-bonding valence electrons. Also, clearly indicate any
formal charges on atoms.
b) Consider the molecular geometry information given for each compound
below: based on this information, specify the orbitals that each atom could
use in σ- and à-bonding (sp², sp³, p, etc.) and for holding non-bonding
electron pairs. Explain how your orbital assignments are consistent with
the observed geometries.

Question options: (σ-bond), C atom = Sp, (π-bond), C atom = 2p (σ-bond), C atom = Sp2, (π-bond), C atom = Sp2 (σ-bond), C atom = Sp2, (π-bond), C atom = 2p (σ-bond), C atom = Sp3, (π-bond), C atom = Sp2arrow_forwardFor the species below draw additional resonance structures (where all atoms have access to an octect of electrons) for species A, B, C, and D. Determine the bond order of the bond from the underlined C to underlined O for the lowest energy structure(s). You may need to evaluate the formal charge of the additional species you draw. These are species in an aprotic solvent, so only electrons may be moved, not hydrogen atoms. For each lettered structure below, input the bond order as an integer (1,2,etc) or improper fraction (4/3, 5/4, etc).
