The following Lewis structures for the following structures are incorrect. Explain what is wrong with each one and give a correct structure for the molecule. (Relative positions of atoms are shown correctly)
0.5 for each right choice and 0.5 for each explanation
a) HCN
b) C2H2
c) BF3
The correct structures of the given compounds are :
a) HCN
Expalanation : Carbon has four valence electrons and nitrogen has five valence electrons so in order to complete the octate this will be the correct structure.
b) C2H2
Expalanation : Hydrogen has one valence electron and it can never forms a double bond. It will form one bond with carbon and the rest valency of carbon will completed by making triple bonds with another carbon in order to complete an octate rule.c) BF3
Expalanation : BF3 molecule have three fluorine molecule and each fluorine molecule has seven valence electrons. Since they required only one electron to complete it's octate. Therefore they will form only single bond with boron. Now in boron if we count there are 6 electron therefore it remain electron deficient. Backbonding from flourine lone pair helps to overcome this deficiency.

a) Draw Lewis structures for the following molecule and ions. For each of these structures, the octet rule must be satisfied, and all lone pairs must be shown. Name the molecular geometry for each and also specify if they are polar. If a molecule has more than one resonance structure, draw just the best one. Show formal charges only if they are not zero. b) Which compound(s) above will not have ideal bond angles about the central atom? Circle your choice(s). CNF ...
