Chapter 2, Problem 17CTQ
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:Non-legitimate Lewis structure from CTQ 13 should be identified by giving reasons.

Concept introduction:A Lewis structure is diagrammatic view of a molecule, where lone pair of electrons is represented in dots, bonds are represented with lines & formal charge of each atom is mentioned near the atom.

In the following Lewis structure of [(CH3)2OH]+, every atom, bond and lone pair is positioned. To complete the structure, drag the formal charge tags to the appropriate atom(s). Each marker may be used more than once, or not at all. If an atom has a formal charge of zero, do not drag a tag to it. When you drag the marker in, place the little crosshairs in the upper left corner of the marker directly over the atom(s) in question (not above them). H H-C-O-C-H HHH - H I Η Η Η 0 0 + 2+ 2-
