Questions and Answers

Which type of molecular representation provides a more descriptive representation of electron repulsion and the geometric distribution of atoms in covalently bonded molecules?

  • Skeletal diagram
  • Lewis structure
  • VSEPR diagram (correct)
  • Molecular model

    • What is the difference between structural isomers and stereoisomers?

  • Structural isomers have the same molecular formula but different atom locations, while stereoisomers have a similar geometric arrangement of atoms but differ in spatial position (correct)
  • Structural isomers and stereoisomers are the same thing
  • Structural isomers have a similar geometric arrangement of atoms but differ in spatial position, while stereoisomers have the same chemical formula but different atom locations
