Chapter 8, Problem 28QP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The lone pairs of the underlined atoms in given compounds are to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

The lone pairs are defined as a pair of electrons occupying an orbital in an atom or molecule and not directly involved in bonding. Lone pairs are found in the outermost electron shell of atoms. They can be identified by using a Lewis structure.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
How many lone pairs are on the underlined atoms in these compounds? HBr, H2S, CH4.
10.) The structural formula of a certain aldehyde (related to formaldehyde) is H3C-CH2-CHO.  Draw a Lewis structure for this aldehyde and determine the number of bonds present.  Note that a single or a double or a triple bond counts as one bond. Write the number, not the word.
What possible error(s) exist in the Lewis structure (assume we are trying to represent the best possible Lewis structure for the NO₂S ion knowing N is the central atom in this polyatomic ion)? [:ö==S: N= CO :O: The best structure would have double bond and two lone pairs on each oxygen atom and a single bond with three lone pairs on the sulfur. There are no errors. This is the best possible structure. The Lewis structure above does not minimize formal charges, thus is the not the best possible structure. The nitrogen atom has an expanded octet, and this structure is impossible. The Lewis structure contains the wrong number of electrons, thus this structure is impossible.
