Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
To explain why the given Lewis structure of CO is not acceptable.
Concept introduction:
Lewis structure is written by distributing the total valence electrons of each atoms involved in bonding, around each atom such that octet of each atom gets completed. Each electron is shown by a dot. If a positive charge is present on the ion then electrons equal to the charge on the ion must be subtracted from the total valence electrons and if a negative charge is present then that much electrons must be added to the total valence electrons.
Answer to Problem 22.56P
The given Lewis structure for
Explanation of Solution
In the given Lewis structure of CO the octet of O atom is complete but the octet of carbon atom is incomplete as shown below:
In the above structure around the oxygen atom there are eight electrons but around the carbon atom there are only six electrons that is the given structure does not follow the octet rule hence the given Lewis structure is not acceptable.
