It should be trigonal planar, and each carbon is sp2 hybridized.

Does c2h2br2 have resonance structures?
No; all the bonds are single covalent.
What type of isomer for C2H2Br2?
Probable you think to CH2Br2, dibromomethane.
Lewis structure C2H2Br2?
BrF3 does not follow the octet rule. Both Br and F have seven valence electrons, so the Lewis structure will have a total of 28 electrons, or 14 electron pairs. Br is the central atom, connected to each F atom by a single bond. 3 lone electron pairs will surround each F atom, and 2 lone electron pairs will be on the Br atom.
What is the Lewis dot structure of CH2Cl?
The Lewis Dot structure is the following for 1-bromo-1-chloromethane: :Br: | H --- C --- H | :Cl: there is also another lone pair of electrons (not shown) on each of the halogens; this would then equall an octet on all atoms. bond = 2 e-; lone pair = 2 e-. For example, the bromine has one bond and three lone pairs of e-'s in its valence shell; therefore, it has an octet ( = 8 e-'s).
What are 3 isomers of C2H2Br2?
There are numerous possible constitutional isomers of bromopentane. Specifically, the bromine atom can be attached to any of the carbon atoms (although there are only three unique possibilities because the 2 end carbons are identical). So you could have:1-bromopentane (same molecule as 5-bromopentane, but lower number is used)2-bromopentane (same molecule as 4-bromopentane, but lower number is used)3-bromopentaneThen you can also have different connectivity between the carbon atoms. So pentane can either be normal pentane (5 carbons in a row), or it can be a branched structure. There are two possible branched structures for pentane: 2-methylbutane ("isopentane") and 2,2-dimethylpropane ("neopentane").For 2-methylbutane the possibilities are:1-bromo-2-methylbutane2-bromo-2-methylbutane2-bromo-3-methylbutane (bromine takes precedence and gets the lower number)1-bromo-3-methylbutaneFinally, there's only one possibility for 2,2-dimethylpropane, since the four methyl groups are equivalent and the central carbon is already bonded to four other things:1-bromo-2,2-dimethylpropane

Chemical equation for the reaction of ethyne with bromine in carbon tetrachloride?
The question is not very specific, so there is more than just one answer, but I'm assuming you are referring to a radical bromination of an alkane (ethane) versus an electrophilic bromination of an alkene (ethene).Br2 in the presence of a radical initiator (such as light or heat) will add to ethane to form 2-bromoethane as the major product in a radical mechanism. This goes through an initiation step (forming 2 bromine radicals), followed by propagation to the alkane (forming a secondary ethyl radical), followed by a termination step. The termination step leading to the product is one where another bromine radical joins with the ethyl radical.In the absence of light or heat, bromine cannot react with an alkane, but it can react as an electrophile with an alkene. In this type of reaction (electrophilic addition to an alkene), the ∏-bond (double bond) on ethene attacks a bromine atom (from Br2) and kicks out a bromide (Br-). The bromine that was just added forms two bonds (one on each carbon of the double bond), giving a three-membered C-Br-C ring called a bromonium ion (since the bromine atom now has a positive charge). The bromide that left before can now attack the backside of the bromonium ion, opening the 3-membered ring, and adding anti to form a dibromoalkane (1,2-dibromoethane in this example). This reaction is stereospecific because in the major product the bromine atoms will always add anti (to the opposite side) on the alkene.
