Atoms or molecule after gaining of electron possesses negative charge and is known as anion.
For the given sets:
The given elements are alkali metals and have tendency to lose electrons easily and form cations.
The given elements are non-metals and are electronegative. So, they gain electrons easily and form anion.
Carbon has tendency to form bond by sharing of electrons, Sulfur has tendency to gain electrons and form anion whereas Lead has tendency to lose electron.
Potassium and Iron has tendency to lose electron and form cation whereas Bromine has tendency to gain electron to form anion.
Hence, from the given sets, all elements of set: have tendency to form anions in binary ionic compounds.
Answer:
Choose the least electronegative atom other than H.
Explanation:
A Lewis structure consists of <em>terminal atoms</em> and one or more <em>central atoms</em>.
H can be <em>only a terminal atom</em> because it can form only one bond.
So the central atom must be either C or O.
The central atom is the less electronegative atom: C.
So, start the Lewis structure with a central C atom.
Then attach an O atom to get C-O.
Finally, attach the H atoms.
The condensed formula often gives you a clue where they go.
The formula CH₃OH implies that there are 3 H atoms on C and one on O.
The connectivity of the atoms is then as in the diagram below.
