Textbook Question
Chapter 1.4, Problem 14P
- a. Draw two Lewis structures for C2H6O.
- b. Draw three Lewis structures for C3H8O.
(Hint: The two Lewis structures in part a are constitutional isomers—molecules that have the same atoms, but differ in the way the atoms are connected. The three Lewis structures in part b are also constitutional isomers.)
