Part a
The resonance structures of the zwitter ion is as follows.
Now for the hybridization, the negatively charged oxygen, the positively charged nitrogen and one carbon are sp3 hybridized, while the double bonded oxygen and the other carbon are sp2 hybridized.
Part b
The dipole moment can be calculated as,
where q is the seperated charge and r is the distance. Susbstituting the values and converting them to the appropriate units, we have,
. In the zwitterionic (charge separated, + and – formal charges present) resonance form of the...
For the following, draw correct Lewis structures showing any formal charges and resonance structures on this sheet. For each molecule, give the geometry, shape and hybridization of the central atom in the molecule and whether the molecule is polar or non-polar (has a dipole moment). Fill in the table with these values. In your diagram, show one of the bond angles between bonded atoms (you choose which one). Put the hond angle in the answer table as well. (8 points...
