Or even glacial acetic acid or CH3COOH. Cant work out how to make a proper subscript 3

OK clever dick:

You're missing 2 carbons and 3 hydrogens, also it's in 2D and doesn't show the steric properties of the molecule


5/10 see me after school

I am not missing 2 carbons and 3 hydrogens. They are considered too obvious to warrant detail: the diagram should NOT be drawn like this:

Note I have drawn the steric properties on the diagram above. But like I say, too detailed and cumbersome: it would all get in the way if I was to start drawing electron attacks and stuff. And the steric properties only represent the most probable formation - there is rotation around all the bonds.

What next? You want me to draw the free electron pairs on the double bonded oxygen? Come on!

And I suspect you know all this!

No that's better, can you include the carbon SP electron orbital hybridisation please as well

Just for a molecular diagram of a molecule? No! My first picture is the accepted standard, as you well know, and you know you know, and I know you know!

Well ok, can you show me a diagram of the accompanying NaCL in its 6:6 crystalline lattice structure?

 

[kendor]

starting to twitch now!

I could do, but I'm not going to! You're just trying to get me at it! Next you'll ask me what happens at the edges!

Ahh now that's easy why didn't you ask me that one?
what happens at the edges? things fall off!

Ah, go on, you know you want to.

And what's "CL" anyway?! Surely you mean "Cl"?

Ah, go on, you know you want to.

No, really I don't. It's been ten years. I still have the nightmares.

 

[2scoops0406]

I was going to post it, but I can't be ar3ed. It's 20 years since I did all that stuff, didn't do me much good.

 

[notb665]

Why, what do you do now?
