    This document is a problem set for a chemistry course that contains 7 questions about molecular representations, including resonance structures, functional groups, and bond-line drawings. Students are asked to draw resonance structures, identify functional groups, convert drawings to bond-line structures, and draw structural isomers that satisfy given molecular formulas. The questions require applying concepts like hybridization, resonance contribution, formal charge, and identifying valid resonance structures.

    Problem Set No. 1 4.

    For each of the following, draw all the significant


    Chem 121 (lec) resonance forms and rank them from the most
    Molecular Representations significant to the least and briefly justify such
    rankings.

    General Instructions. Please provide clear, legible and


    systematic answers to the following problems. Erasures
    using correction tape are allowed. Any corrections later
    due to unintelligible handwriting will not be entertained.

    1. Melatonin is an animal hormone believed to have a


    role in regulating the sleep cycle. In its structure,
    two nitrogen atoms are present. What is the
    hybridization state and geometry of each nitrogen
    atom? Explain your answer.

    5. Identify the functional groups in the following


    substance, and convert each drawing into a bond-
    line structure (red= O, blue= N)

    2. Explain which of the following resonance structures


    gives out the greatest contribution to the resonance
    yield:

    6. Draw the bond- line structure of the following:


    a) Three ethers with the formula C4H10O.
    b) Two aldehydes with the formula C5H10O

    7. Identify and justify which of the following structures


    is not a significant resonance structure of a phenyl
    carbocation

    3. Add any unshared electrons to give each


    compounds to give a complete octet in its valence
    shells and indicate its formal charge/s, if there are
    any.
