1.	The skeletal structure of `CH_(3)COOH` as shown below is correct but some of the bords are wrongly shown. Write the correct Lewis structures of acetic acid. `H-underset(H)underset(\|)overset(H)overset(\|)C-underset(* )overset(":"O":")overset(\|)C-underset( *)O-H`
Answer» Only the skeletal arrangement of the atoms in the above structure is correct. But it is not according to the lewis concept as well as tetravalent nature of carbon. The correct structure of acetic acid is `H-underset(H)underset(\|)overset(H)overset(\|)C-overset(":"O":")overset(\|)C-underset(* )overset( *)O-H`
