Question

Using Lewis symbols and Lewis structures, make a sketch
of the formation of NCl3 from N and Cl atoms, showing
valence-shell electrons. (e) How many lone
pairs of electrons are in the NCl3 molecule?

Accepted Answer

Hi everyone here. We have a question asking what is the lewiS structure for arsenic, trifle ride? How many lone pairs of electrons does it have? So we have three florins. So flooring has seven valence electrons. So three times 7 And we have one arsenic which has five For total valence electrons of 26. So we're going to have our arsenic in the middle surrounded by our three florins. So we have six of our valence electrons used. So now we're gonna fill our opt. It's so that's 8, 12 14 16 2022, 24 and 26. So this is our lewis structure. Now we have to count how many lone pairs of electrons does it have? So it has one,  aN:aN:000NaN 2, 456789, 10 loan pairs. And that is our final answer. Thank you for watching. Bye.
