Chapter 18, Problem 6E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The geometry of the carbon atom which can form four single bonds, two single bonds, and one double bond and one single bond and one triple bond is to be described.

Concept Introduction:

A Lewis structure is used to represent the valence electrons and the bonds present in a molecule.

Dots around the symbol of an element in the Lewis structure represent the valence electrons.

Valence shell electron pair repulsion(VSEPR) theory predicts the shape of the molecule.
