What is the Lewis structure of CH3CL?

Answer 1

Put the carbon in the middle and attach the hydrogen and all of the chlorine atoms to the carbon. Put three non-bonding pairs on each chlorine atom.

Like this:

Cl

|

Cl - C - H

|

Cl

Answer 2

The Lewis structure of CH3Cl (chloromethane) consists of a central carbon atom bonded to three hydrogen atoms and one chlorine atom. The carbon atom has a total of four valence electrons, which it shares with the hydrogen and chlorine atoms to form covalent bonds. The structure is shown as H-C-H with a single bond between carbon and hydrogen, a single bond between carbon and chlorine, and a lone pair on the chlorine atom.

Answer 3

1 bond between the carbon and each of the hydrogens, with a lone electron (dot) on the carbon. Forms sp3 hybridized orbitals, and molecule is pyramidal shaped.

The orbital geometry is a tetrahedral. However, because of the lone electron (dot) on the carbon, the molecular shape is trigonal pyramidal.

Answer 4

The Lewis structure of CH3O- ( the methoxide ion) should be as follows: A C atom is placed in the middle, single bonded to three H atoms. The C atom is also single bonded to an O atom which has a full complement of 8 electrons. The O atom has a -1 formal charge.

Answer 5

H H

| | H-C-O

H

the C forms 3 bonds with the 3 H's then the last with O and O's second bond is with the last hydrogen

Answer 7

Left to Right:

CH3. Carbon single bonded to S. S double bonded to Oxygen. S Single bonded to CH3

Answer 8

H .. .. H : C : O : H .. .. H Thats it

Answer 9

H H | | H - C - C - H | | H H

Answer 10
