What is the Lewis structure of methanethiol, CH3SH?

xplanation:

A line shows a bonding pair of electrons (which are usually 2 for every line) – the atoms involved in the bond share two electrons per bond to form a covalent bond. The two dots show a pair of lone electrons NOT involved in bonding.

The Carbon and Sulfur will require to have their valence orbital shell involved in the bonding to have 8 electrons. The Hydrogens need 2 to achieve stable electron configuration. This way the atoms achieve stability in the molecule

they it depends on if one believes about radioactivity, they make a geiger counter beep but maybe it was going to beep anyway electronics do wierd things all the time or it was programmed to beep near certain metals.

the enthalpy of formation of water is given as -285.8kj/mol, which states that the enthalpy of formation is negative.

negative enthalpy of formation indicates that the heat is released during the reaction process. the heat is released from reaction to the surroundings the enthalpy is expressed with a negative sign with the energy given out in the reaction process.

the formation of water takes place by giving out heat which is -285.8 kj/mol.
