Draw Lewis structure of the following

a.CH3CHO

b.CH3OCH3

c.CH3COOH

Short Answer

Expert verified

Answer:

Step by step solution

01

Determine the total number of valence electrons.

a. CH3CHO

=4+3+4+1+6=18

b.CH3OCH3

=4+3+6+4+3=20

c.CH3COOH

=4+3+4+12+1=24

02

Distribute the atoms, form bonds and fill in their octets

Use the number of valence electrons determined in step1 to fill up the octet.

a.



Bonded electrons=14

Lone pair =2

b.


Bonded electrons=16

Lone pair=2


c.


Bonded electrons=16

Lone pair=4

According to the potential maps for ammonium ion, which atom has the greatest electron density?

Calculate the percentages of 伪-d-glucose and 尾-d-glucose present at equilibrium from the specific rotations of 伪-d-glucose, 尾-d-glucose, and the equilibrium mixture. Compare your values with those given in Section 20.10. (Hint:The specific rotation of the mixture equals the specific rotation of 伪-d-glucose times the fraction of glucose present in the 伪-form plus the specific rotation of 尾-d-glucose times the fraction of glucose present in the 尾-form.)
