Draw the Lewis Structure for CHO 2 -1 Which of the following is a correct statement?

CHO 2 -1 is a resonance structure

Oxygen is the center atom of this molecule

C 6 H 6 has two resonance structures. This best supports which statement below?

All bonds between carbon atoms have the same length.

C 6 H 6 is a good conductor of electricity.

The bonds are unstable and the compound will decompose quickly.

The molecule always has 3 single C-C bonds and 3 double C-C bonds.

What is the advantage of expanding the octet in the SO 2 Lewis structure?

the formal charges drop to zero for all atoms

the bond order is a whole number

it makes the molecule linear instead of bent

it creates a dative covalent bond

The PF 5 molecule exists, whereas NF 5 does not. Which one of the following is the BEST explanation for this fact?

Phosphorus can use d orbitals in bonding, whereas nitrogen cannot.

The first five ionization energies of nitrogen are too high, but those of phosphorus are not.

Phosphorus has a core charge that must pull over a greater distance due to having a greater number of main energy levels.

Phosphorus has a lower electronegativity and is, therefore, able to hold a greater number of shared electrons in bonds.

Based on formal charge, which Lewis structure best represents a sulfuric acid molecule?

Structure B is the better structure because all of its atoms have a formal charge of zero.

Structure A is the better structure because all of its atoms have a formal charge of zero.

Structure A is the better structure because NOT all of its atoms have a formal charge of zero.

Structure B is the better structure because NOT all of its atoms have a formal charge of zero.
