5. A gaseous molecule "X" is made by burning sulfur in air. "X" is converted to "Y" by
reaction with oxygen in the presence of a catalyst. "Y" reacts vigorously with water to produce
"Z" which turns litmus red.
a) Identify "X", "Y", and "Z".
b) Write a balanced equation for each reaction.
c) Draw Lewis diagrams of the molecules "X" and "Y". Determine their AB
n
E

classes and name the molecular shapes. Indicate the bond angles, and if they are ideal or less
than ideal. Are the "X" and "Y" molecules polar or non-polar?
d) When 1 mole of "Z" is titrated with 2 moles of NaOH, a soluble salt "W" forms. Write an
appropriate Lewis electron dot structure for the anion of this salt.
6. For the molecules OCS, ICl
