Give the number of total electron groups, the number of bonding groups, and the number of lone pairs for the geometry depicted in (a).

Respuesta :

The number of bonding groups and the number of lone pairs in geometry depicted in a, it can be 4 electron groups, 4 bonding groups, and 0 lone pairs.

How do you find the number of bonding electron groups?

  • Lone pair of electron is nonbonded pair, nonbonded electron pair. A valence shell electron pair associated with one atom, and not part of a covalent bond.
  • The difference between bond pair and lone pair is that a bond pair is composed of two electrons that are in a bond whereas a lone pair is composed of two electrons that are not in a bond

Here steps for counting bonding electron pairs in a Lewis Structure:

  • First step is, count each single line as one bonded pair of electrons.
  • Second step, count each double line as two bonded pairs of electrons.
  • Third step, count each triple line as three bonded pairs of electrons.
  • And the last, add up the numbers from each step.
