Chapter 2, Problem 6CTQ

It is impossible to draw a legitimate Lewis structure of a neutral NH 4 molecule. Hypothetically,how many valence electrons would such a neutral NH 4 molecule have ifit could exist?
a. The +1 cation, NH 4 + , does exist. How many valence electrons does one NH 4 + ion have?
b. Draw the Lewis structure for NH 4 +

2. Avogadro does not "waste" his time drawing a Lewis structure before determining the shape of PF3. He thinks that the shape of PF3 must be trigonal planar because there are three fluorine atoms bonded to the central phosphorus atom. a. Draw the Lewis structure for PF3. b. Was Avogadro's answer for the shape of a PF3 molecule correct? Explain c. Why is it important to draw the Lewis structure for a molecule before identifying the shape of the molecule? 3. Draw the Lewis structure of ozone, O3. Describe why ozone has a bent shape instead of a linear shape.
Consider lewis structure of NH3. how many Ione pairs are on nitrogen:   1   2   4   0   3   When the predicted Lewis structure of ArO3, ^2+ is drawn correctly, how many lone pairs are on the central atom?   O A.3 O B. 2 O C.o O D.4 O E.1   How many valence electrons would an AX4 molecule have if A was a group 6A atom and X was from group 7 A?   O A. 32 О B. 36 O C. 30 O D. 28 O E. 34
