Seo2 Lewis Structure

Prepare the Lewis structure for SeO2. What is the geometry of electrons around the central atom?

Hey! Your Lewis structure is a bit different at the moment :)

You were asked about the geometry of electrons, so the triangular planner is the answer and not the tilt / angle which is the molecular geometry of the molecule.

So the answer to question B.

Lewis SEO 2 framework

Number of valence electrons = 6 + 6 + 6 = 18

The structure of the skeleton is OSeO

The 4 electrons in the bond now divide 184 = 14 electrons evenly between the two O atoms, so they get 8 electrons around them. Therefore, each O 6 accepts electrons. The other two electrons are assigned to C. It simply transfers 6 to 8 oxygen from one to a pair of electrons to form a double bond.

O :: If: O

One is a double bond between O and Se and the other is a bond between Se and the other O. Furthermore, Se has only one pair of electrons. Hence the curved geometry.

Lewis Seo2 structure

Seo2 Lewis Structure

Number of valence electrons = 6 + 6 + 6 = 18

The skeletal structure is OSeO.

The 4 electrons in the bond now divide 184 = 14 electrons equally into two O atoms, so they have 8 electrons around them. Therefore, each O accepts 6 electrons each. The other two electrons are assigned to Se. It only gives Se 6 to 8, removing a pair of electrons from one of the oxygen to form a double bond.

O :: If: O

One has a double bond between O and Se and the other has the same bond between O and Se. There is only one pair of electrons. Therefore curved geometry
