Final answer:
The lewis structure for CH₃(CH₂)₃CH=CH₂ involves arranging carbon in a chain and adding hydrogen atoms to satisfy four bonds for each carbon, with a double bond between the fourth and fifth carbon atoms.
Step-by-step explanation:
To draw the Lewis structure for the molecule mentioned in the question, we need to address the abbreviated structure CH₃(CH₂)₃VCHCH₂, which seems to have a typo (V). Assuming that 'V' is not part of the molecular formula, we may interpret the structure as a hydrocarbon with a five-carbon chain, where the fourth carbon has a double bond with the fifth carbon. Following the steps for drawing a Lewis structure:
- First, determine the total number of valence electrons. Each carbon atom has 4 valence electrons, and each hydrogen atom has 1 valence electron.
- Arrange the carbon atoms in a chain with the proper number of hydrogen atoms attached to make four bonds to each carbon atom, except for the fourth carbon which will have a double bond to the fifth carbon.
- Add lone pairs to satisfy the octet rule for the carbon atoms involved in the double bond if necessary.
- Since hydrogen atoms can only form one bond, no lone pairs will be added to them.
