Many important compounds in the chemical industry are derivatives of ethylene (C2H4). Two of them are acrylonitrile and methyl methacrylate.

Complete the Lewis structures for these molecules, showing all lone pairs. Give approximate values for bond angles a through f, and give the hybridization of all carbon atoms. In acrylonitrile and methyl methacrylate indicate which atoms in each molecule must lie in the same plane. How many σ bonds and how many π bonds are there in acrylonitrile and methyl methacrylate?
