Question
Draw a Lewis structure for ethanol , then answer the following questions about the structure: Number of valence electrons: Number of bonding electrons: Number of non-bonding electrons: Tries 4/99 Previous Tries Identify the fault, if any, in each of the following Lewis structures for ethanol. If more than one answer appl A Incorrect: Wrong molecular formula. B Incorrect: Correct molecular formula but wrong structural formula. Incorrect: Not enough electrons. Incorrect: Too many electrons. E Incorrect: Correct number of electrons, but octet rule violated. Correct: Octet rule violation is permitted in this case. G Correct: But a better resonance structure exists. Identify: The electron pair geometry of the oxygen atom in ethanol. The molecular geometry of the central carbon atom in ethanol. The hybridization of the oxygen atom in ethanol. The electron pair geometry of the terminal carbon atom in ethanol. The electron pair geometry of the central carbon atom in ethanol. The approximate size (in degrees) of the bond angle in ethanol.
