Question
Chapter 8, Problem 6PP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The lewis structure for formaldehyde is to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Valence electrons are the electrons which are involved in bonding.
In Lewis symbol, valence electrons are represented by dots placed around the symbol.
The valence electron of a molecule is equal to the sum of valence electrons of each atom.
Octet rule is defined as the ability of an atom to have eight electrons in valence shell.
