Methyl nitrate, CH3NO3，is used as a rocket propellant. The skeleton structure of the molecule is CH3ONO2: The N and three O atoms lie in the same plane, but the CH3 group is not in the same plane as the NO3group. The bond angle C-O-N is 105° and the bond angle O-N-O is 125°, One N-to-O bond length is 120pm and the other two are 136 pm each. a. Draw a Lewis structure of the molecule showing its geometrical shape.

b. Describe the bonding scheme and the probable atomic (including hybrid) orbitals
involved.
c. Explain why all three N-to-O bond lengths are not the same.
d. Is the specie a polar molecule? If so, show the direction of the net dipole.

they vary. it used to be meat, grain, bread, candy, beverages, donuts, and fruits/vegetables. now they added exercise in.

the seeing the electronic configuration we can say that the element is fluorine.

fluorine is the most electronegative element in the periodic table.

but by only seeing the configuration we cannot say about its reactivity because we don't know if its configuration after excitation or by addition of electrons.

but if not then, it is the lightest halogen and exists as a highly toxic pale yellow diatomic gas at standard conditions. as the most electronegative element, it is extremely reactive: almost all other elements, including some noble gases, form compounds with fluorine.
