I need help. For the following I need to know as follows:

Lewis Structure and structural formulas

PH3

CO2

SO2

Label each BOND as Polar or non polar - make sure to describe the BOND not the molecule

Give the shape of each MOLECULE & describe whether each MOLECULE is polar or non polar? Soluble or insoluble in water?

  1. All the BONDS are polar as there are no bonds that have plane (perpendicular) symmetry through the bond. Non-polar molecules need 3-fold planar symmetry - only CO2 has it here.

    With info you should be able to draw octets and see the shapes.

    Remember the both S and O have 6 e's in valence shell; thus, 18. Count the e's in the previous answer.
