Chapter 13, Problem 62E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The condensed structural formula is to be defined. Also, the reasons for its usefulness in drawing a Lewis diagrams is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The Lewis diagrams show the bonding between different atoms of a molecule and the lone pairs of electrons in the molecule. It gives only the two-dimensional arrangement of atoms. In Lewis diagram two electrons are indicated as a line to show bonding between atoms.
