How can I write the Lewis dot structure for C2H6
Ethane is a hydrocarbon molecule with a structural formula consisting of two carbon atoms bonded by a single
bond (carbon-carbon bond) and six hydrogen atoms bonded to those carbon atoms. The structural diagram of ethane shows that each carbon atom has three bonds, with hydrogen atoms filling in the remaining bonding positions. Regarding its chemical characteristics, ethane is a nonpolar molecule because the electronegativity difference between carbon and hydrogen atoms is relatively small, leading to equal sharing of electrons within the carbon-hydrogen bonds. The Lewis structure of ethane, C2H6, contributes to its chemical properties, such as
its comparatively low boiling point and relatively high flammability.
