12) Draw diagrams (outer electrons only) to show the bonding in the following covalent molecules. Draw a before-bonding picture and after-bonding picture for each on another sheet of paper (your drawings should be similar to the example above): a) Chlorine-Cl₂ b) Oxygen - O2 (draw with a double bond between the O atoms; the four electrons are actually a single bond and two unpaired shared electrons) c) Carbon dioxde - CO₂ (place the atoms in a line with C in the middle)
