Description

 

The following electron-dot formulas for carbon dioxide both satisfy the octet rule for all of the atoms. Which of these structures is the better structure and why is this the case?
(a)"A" is the better structure because there is no formal charge on any of the atoms.
(b)"A" is the better structure because all the bonds and non-bonding electron pairs are arranged in a symmetrical pattern.
(c)"B" is the better structure because there are opposite formal charges on the two oxygen atoms which attract each other and give the molecule a lower energy.
(d)"B" is the better structure because the bond energies of a single bond and a triple bond are higher than the bond energies of two double bonds.

13. Which Br�nsted acid (H2O or H2S (aq)) is the stronger acid and why is it the stronger acid?
(a)H2O is the stronger acid because oxygen has a greater electronegativity than sulfur, which gives the attached hydrogen atom more proton character.
(b)H2O is the stronger acid because H2S is a gas and gases are not acids.
