Hi there.
00:03
In this question, we want to put in the bonds and the lone electrons for this molecule of acetic acid.
00:11
All right.
00:12
So first of all, starting off, we know hydrogen can only form single bonds.
00:17
So i'm going to put a single bond in for each hydrogen, holding it to the atom next to it.
00:26
So each hydrogen has a single bond.
00:28
We know carbon needs four bonds.
00:32
So our first one, our first one, first carbon already has three bonds, so we'll make a fourth bond to the other carbon.
00:42
Let's talk about oxygen for a moment.
00:45
Oxygens need two bonds.
00:48
Well, the oxygen to the right already has a bomb to hydrogen, so it just needs one more bomb...
