Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The wrong in the structure has to be identified.
Concept introduction:
Tetra valence nature of carbon:
Carbon is tetravalent in nature, Carbon have 4 valence electrons in outermost orbital , so it can be take part in bonding to share those 4 electrons only. In order to satisfy the Octet rule it can be bonded with 4 atoms only.
(b)

The wrong in the structure has to be identified.
