14. What's the structure of Cl2O? Is it polar or non-polar? O A. Trigonal planar, non-polar
O B. Bent or angular, non-polar
O C. Bent or angular, polar
O D. Trigonal planar, polar

C. Bent or angular, polar

Explanation:

OCl2 is polar because the two O-Cl bond dipoles don't cancel each other.

structure of dichlorine monoxide is similar to that of water and hypochlorous acid, with the molecule adopting a bent molecular geometry due to the lone pairs on the oxygen.

answer:

the answer is 6 valence electrons.

explanation:

valence is the # of electrons on the outer most shell of an atom.

oxygen has 6.

although, the valency of oxygen is 2, because it only needs to make 2 covalent bonds, or gain 2 electrons, to achieve the stable octet configuration of a noble gas.

that's it!

if you need further assistance, let me know: )
