Question 21 • Chemistry

Lewis structures cannot

Answer
A
show the location of bonds.
B
show how many bonds are present in a molecule.
C
show the number of valence electrons.
D
show the strength of bonds.

Explanation

Lewis structures use lines to show where bonds are located and how many bonds connect atoms. They also show valence electrons as bonding pairs and lone pairs. A Lewis structure does not indicate how strong a bond is, so the correct choice is “show the strength of bonds.”
