Answer to Question #106188 in General Chemistry for Maitrik

Question

1. Which of the following species, CO2, OCl ̶, CO32-requires a resonance hybrid for its Lewis structure? Show the Lewis structure of each species, and also the resonance hybrid.

2. n which of the following species, ClO4 ̶, ICl3, OSCl2, is it necessary to employ an expanded valence shell to represent the correct Lewis structure? Show the Lewis structure of each species and clearly indicated which one has an expanded valence shell.

3. Using VSEPR theory, predict both the electron group geometry and the molecular shape, and draw the shape of the molecule with correct 3D perspective, i.e use dashed and wedged bonds when necessary and correct bond angles. a)SF5–b) OSF2c) ClO3–d) I3–
