Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
For the given line structure, all carbon atoms, hydrogen atoms, and lone pairs are to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
Line structures are compact, like condensed structures. When drawing line structures, carbon atoms and the hydrogen atoms attached to them are not drawn explicitly. A carbon atom is implied at the intersection of two bonds and at the end of each bond. Atoms except carbon and hydrogen are drawn. Non-bonding electrons are usually not shown unless they are important to emphasize an aspect of the atom.
(b)
Interpretation:
For the given line structure, all carbon atoms, hydrogen atoms, and lone pairs are to be drawn.

- What is the relationship between the following two molecules? Problem viewing the image. Click Here O They are the same compound. O They are structural isomers. O They are stereoisomers. O They are completely different compound and not isomers O They are isotopes.arrow_forwardProblem Which of the following substances exhibits H bonding? For any that do, show the H bonds between two of its molecules. (a) C̟H, (b) CH;OH (c) CH3C–NH,arrow_forwardIdentify all functional groups that are present in strychnine, a highly toxic alkaloid used as a pesticide to kill rodents, whose line structure is shown here. What compound class is characteristic of each of those functional groups? Strychninearrow_forward
- Homework problem wants to different structures that have the same molecular formula but different connectivities for c5h12arrow_forwardDraw the major resonance structure for the compound shown; include lone pairs of electrons, formal charges, and condensed hydrogen atoms (located in the More menu). Then draw curved arrows to show how this can be converted to the Lewis structure givenarrow_forwardProblem What amount (mol) of each ion is in each solution?(a) 5.0 mol of ammonium sulfate dissolved in water(b) 78.5 g of cesium bromide dissolved in water(c) 7.42×1022 formula units of copper(II) nitrate dissolved in water(d) 35 mL of 0.84 M zinc chloridePlan We write an equation that shows 1 mol of compound dissociating into ions. (a) We multiply the number of moles of ions by 5.0. (b) We first convert grams to moles. (c) We first convert formula units to moles. (d) We first convert molarity and volume to moles.arrow_forward
- Below are two sets of resonance structures. Where applicable provide the missing curved arrow notation, lone pair electrons, and nonzero formal charge. Do not delete or add any bonds or atoms.arrow_forwardDraw all reasonable resonance structures for the following compounds. Be sure to show the proper arrows to indicate electron movementarrow_forwardDraw resonance structures for the following compound:Add curved arrow(s) to show resonance using one of the five patterns, and modify the second structure given to draw the new resonance structure. Include relevant formal charges in your structure. Use the + and - tools to add/remove charges to an atom, and use the single bond tool to add/remove double bonds.arrow_forward
- Problem Draw Lewis structures for the following:(a) Ethylene (C2H4), the most important reactant in the manufacture of polymers(b) Nitrogen (N2), the most abundant atmospheric gasPlan We show the structure resulting from steps 1 to 4: placing the atoms, counting the total valence electrons, making single bonds, and distributing the remaining valence electrons in pairs to attain octets. Then we continue with step 5, if needed.arrow_forwardPlease draw a more stable resonance structure for the following molecule. Use a curved arrow to show how to transform the original structure to the new one and please specify charges.arrow_forwardDraw both a bond-line and fully condensed structure (do show double bond in condensed) for allyl chloride.arrow_forward
