2a) The molecule ethene (or ethylene), which has the molecular formula C₂H4, contains two carbon atoms with
planar geometry. Construct a model of ethene by first connecting two black balls with two springs. Use four
short sticks and four yellow balls to complete the structure. Sketch a perspective representation (a three
dimensional drawing) of the structure.
2b) What is the C=C-H bond angle in ethene?
(c) If we replace the hydrogen atoms in ammonia with the ethyl moieties (C2H5)3– N),
there is no change in the hybridization of central oxygen atom, yet they have different
