Question
Chapter 1, Problem 24EQ
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The total number of electrons in the given molecular skeleton is to be calculated and there by the Lewis structure is to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
The electrons present in the valance shell are called as valance electrons. A single bond is formed by involving two valance electrons. The valance electrons which are not involved in bonding are called as unshared of electrons and they are usually represented as dots over the atom.
