In this type of bonding the 2s orbital and the three 2p orbitals of the carbon atom are mixed to produce four identical orbitals, a process known as sp3 hybridization. The CS2 molecule is linear and the carbon atom is bonded to each sulphur by a double bond.
(Step 1) The number of valence electrons in CH2Cl2 is. Element C 2H 2Cl Valence electrons per atom 4 + (2 (1) + (2 (7) = 20 (Step 2) Carbon has the most unpaired electrons (4) in its Lewis symbol and therefore has the highest bonding capacity and will be the central atom in the structure.Step 1) The number of valence electrons in CNâ is. Element C N Valence electrons per atom 4 + 5 = 9 Gain of electron due to charge +1 Total valence electrons 10 (Step 2) There are only two atoms bonded together so neither is the central atom.
