What is the Lewis Structure for C2Cl2?

Answer 1

Carbon likes to form 4 bonds because it has four valence electrons (e-). Besides the carbon atom, there are four other atoms: 3 Fluorine atoms and 1 chlorine atom. So you start by writing C for carbon in the middle, then distribute the other four atoms around it. Draw a line to each outer atom from the central carbon atom. From here it's pretty simple. Both fluorine and chlorine have seven valence electrons (Periodic Table group 7,hello!) so they just need to have one of their valence e- to bond with one atom to "feel complete." So basically you just draw your six remaining Lewis dots around each of the three fluorine atoms and the chlorine atom and you're done.

Answer 2

The Lewis structure for boron dichloride difluoride starts with a B atom in the center. On the top and bottom are singly bonded Cl atoms and to the left and right are singly bonded F atoms. On all unbonded sides are a single pair of dots.

Answer 3

The dot structure of Carbon difluoride dichloride starts with the C atom in the center. On top and bottom are a singly bonded Cl atom, and to the right and left are singly bonded F atoms. each of the satellite atoms has a single pair of dots on their unbonded sides.

Answer 4

PCl2F3 has the following Lewis structure: The P atom is placed in the Center, with three F atoms single bonded along plane of symmetry. The two Cl atoms are single bonded in the remaining locations in the opposite plane. The geometry is trigonal bipyramidal.

Answer 5

The Lewis structure for C2Cl2 consists of two carbon atoms double bonded to each other and each carbon atom is attached to a chlorine atom. The structure can also be represented as a linear molecule with the carbon atoms in the center and the chlorine atoms on either side.

Answer 7

C is your center atom with 2 F and Cl atoms with 3 pairs of nonbonding e- around each.

I apologize, there isn't really a good way to show a triple bond
