Which is the correct lewis structure for ethylene, c2h4?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Alex4 years ago
3 0
Remember this, when trying to find a valid lewis structure, every single atom must have a total of 8 shared electrons (full octet). Since I only have 4 hydrogens to work with, two on each carbon, I assumed a double bond in the middle. This way, every atom has a full octet, except for hydrogen which is most stable with just two electrons. If there were just a single bond in between the carbons, each carbon would only have a total of 6 shared electrons which violates the octet rule. So a double bond is a must. This is ethylene by the way.

Luba_88 [7]

Answer : If an increase in temperature accompanies a reaction, energy is released. Explanation :In thermodynamics, the reaction is considered as a system and the medium in which the reaction occurs which is usually an aqueous medium is considered as its surrounding. When the heat flows from the system to its surrounding, it increases the temperature of surrounding medium because the heat released by the system is absorbed by its surrounding. This is known as exothermic reaction. An exothermic reaction is always accompanied by energy release. On the other hand, when the heat flows from the surrounding towards system, it decreases the temperature of the surrounding medium. This is known as endothermic reaction. From the above discussion we can say that If an increase in temperature accompanies a reaction, energy is released.

Good luck ;)
