Lewis structure (Related! - Please Help!)
I have 2 problems, please help me!please! thank you so much!
Can you tell me if I am correct?Thank you so much!I tried acd and ac but it's wrong! :( 1. Which of the following are true about the correct Lewis structure of the SeF2 molecule ?
a) The structure has 20 valence electrons.
b) One of the F atoms would be the central atom as it has a greater number of valence electrons than an Se atom.
c) Only the Se atom has an octet of electrons.
d) Although there are different ways to draw the structure, only one is correct.
The attempt at a solution
I tried acd and ac but it's wrong! :(
2. Which of the following molecules has a Lewis Structure that contains a multiple bond ?
a) Cl2
b) C2H2
c) CO
d) N2
e) SeF2
The attempt at a solution
I tried b, bd, bde, and be but it's all wrong! :( Help!
