Professor Carl C. Wamser

1. (2 points) Write a complete expanded structure for (CH3)2CHOCl , showing all bonds and all lone pairs. Three-dimensional structure is NOT important here.


2. (4 points) Write a complete Lewis structure for CH3ONO (bonded in that order). Show all bonds and all lone pairs. Draw AND describe in words the three-dimensional structure (molecular geometry, not electronic) expected at C , O (just the middle O), and N.


3. (4 points) Complete each of the acid-base reactions shown below. For each completed reaction, identify the acid on each side and its pKa value. Determine whether the reaction would be favored to the right or to the left. Potentially useful pKa values are listed below.
