Hclo Lewis Structure Molecular Geometry. Draw lewis structure 2. A weak unstable acid it is the active form of chlorine in water it has a role as a human metabolite an ec 3 1 1 7 acetylcholinesterase inhibitor and an ec 2 5 1 18 glutathione transferase inhibitor it is a member of reactive oxygen species and a chlorine oxoacid.
When we have an h or h2 in front of a polyatomic molecule like co 3 so 4 no 2 etc we know that it s an acid. Determine if the molecule is polar or non polar brf 4 so 2 so 3 2 hclo 4 xeof 4. Identify hybridization of the central atom 4.
Hypochlorous acid is a chlorine oxoacid with formula hocl.
Hypochlorous acid is a chlorine oxoacid with formula hocl. When we have an h or h2 in front of a polyatomic molecule like co 3 so 4 no 2 etc we know that it s an acid. Draw the lewis structure of chlorous acid hclo 2 the result is that around cl there are a number bonding groups and lone pair s of electrons. The number and types of structural groups aroud cl leads to the conclusion that the bonding groups are arranged around cl.
