What is the correct Lewis formula for CH2S?

Answer 1

H

HCSH

H

three hydrogens and the sulfur are attached to the carbon, the additional hydrogen is attached to the sulfur.

and the sulfur has two lone pairs

(all single bonds)

Answer 2

The C is the central atom surrounded by three of the Hydrogens and the Sulfur, and in turn the Sulfur is connected to the last Hydrogen. All have single bonds, and the Sulfur has two lone pairs.

Answer 3

The Lewis structure for CH2S would have carbon in the center with one hydrogen atom on each side bonded to the carbon, and a sulfur atom bonded to the carbon with a lone pair. This structure satisfies the octet rule for each atom and minimizes formal charges.

Answer 4

it is a covalent bond, so find the valencies of carbon, 2 hydrogens and sulfur it is a covalent bond, so find the valencies of carbon, 2 hydrogens and sulfur

Answer 5

The dot structure for CH2 starts with one C atom in the center. To the north and south are two singly bonded H atoms. There are two single dots, one to the east and one to the west.
