Answer to Problem 3.18P
There are sixteen
Explanation of Solution
The line drawing of the given molecule is:
This must be converted to a Lewis structure showing all atoms and lone pairs before the number of bonds of different types and the electrons in nonbonding MOs can be counted.
The Lewis structure of the molecule showing all atoms, bonds and lone pairs can be drawn as:
This shows fourteen single bonds, two double bonds, and two lone pairs. Therefore, the molecule contains a total of sixteen
