Answer:
have 0 lone pair, all bond pairs
Explanation:
- The chemical formula for ethylene is (colourless gas). It is a hydrocarbon with two carbon atoms linked together by a double bond.
- Ethene gas is less dense than air. It has a pleasant odour and has the potential to cause an explosion., it is not toxic but a simple asphyxiant.
- Four C-H bonds and one double bond between two carbon atoms make up the Lewis structure. In the Lewis structure of , there are no lone pairs on the central or outer atoms.
- When we examine the Lewis structure of , we can see that there are three bonded pairs of electrons around each carbon and zero lone pair.
- The ethene molecule has a trigonal planar shape, according to the VSEPR chart. Two triangles are overlapping each other. This is because each carbon is surrounded by a planar triangle.
- The bond angle is around 120 degrees.
