Up to 4 valence electrons are placed around the symbol one at a time; additional electrons are paired up . The result is up to 4 pairs of electrons = octet . NOTE: hydrogen can not have an octet. When forming bonds with other atoms, it can have a • H maximum of 2 electrons in its valence shell 6 2/16/2018 Lewis Symbols and the Periodic Table Group e- configuration # of valence e- Lewis Dot Symbol 1A ns1 1 2A ns2 2 3A ns2np1 3 4A ns2np2 4 5A ns2np3 5 6A ns2np4 6 7A ns2np5 7 Lewis Symbols and the Periodic Table Unpaired dots = bonding capacity. Main Group Elements: Members of same family have same number of valence electrons, and similar bonding capacities. 7 2/16/2018 Lewis Structures of Ionic Compounds - Na Na+ + e [Ne]3s1 [Ne] + Cl - - - Na + e + Cl Cl - Na+ Cl [Ne]3s23p5 [Ne]3s23p6 = [Ar] Sample Exercise 4.8 (Modified) Draw the Lewis symbols of the monatomic ions formed by calcium and oxygen. Then draw the Lewis structure of calcium oxide (CaO). 8 2/16/2018 Lewis Structures of Molecular (Covalent) Compounds A covalent bond is a chemical bond in which two or more electrons are shared by two nonmetals, resulting in an octet for both atoms. For example - Lewis structure of F2 Lewis structure of H2O Guidelines for Drawing Lewis Structures (updated later on with the concept of “formal charge”) 1. Hydrogen is always a terminal atom because it can form only one bond. 2. The CENTRAL ATOM usually has the lowest electron affinity (or electronegativity as defined later) 3. Arrange the atoms geometrically and symmetrically. e.g. CHCl3 9 2/16/2018 Guidelines for Drawing Lewis Structures (updated later on with the concept of “formal charge”) 4. Sum up the total number of valence electrons (use the group number), and calculate the number of pairs. 5. Connect the atoms together so that each atom has an octet (except H). You may have to form multiple bonds. Multiple Bonds – sharing more than one pair of electrons Double bond – two atoms share two pairs of electrons CO2 H2CO Triple bond – two atoms share three pairs of electrons N2 C2H2 10 2/16/2018 Lewis Structures of Charged Species ClO- + NO2 Electronegativity, Unequal Sharing, and Polar Bonds .

Polar Covalent Bonds • Unequal sharing of electrons in a covalent bond resulting in an uneven distribution of charge. • Results from differences in electronegativity. • Dipole Moment = polarity indicated by arrow pointing to more “partially negative” end, with a “partially positive” charge on the opposite size 훿+ 훿− H Cl 12 2/16/2018 Polar Covalent Bonds - Unequal sharing of electrons resulting in an uneven distribution of charge. +1 훿+ 훿− -1 Difference Bond Type 0 < 0.4 Covalent Cl2 0.4 < EN < 2 Polar Covalent HCl 2 Ionic NaCl Electronegativity Trends . As seen previously, electronegativity increases moving up to the right in the periodic table. (Noble gases not included.) . Bond polarity increases as ΔEN increases.

The actual structure is “intermediate” or an “average” of all the possibilities. e.g. O3 Resonance Structures: Ozone . There are two plausible Lewis structures for ozone. The actual structure for O3 is the “average” of the two resonance structures. 15 2/16/2018 Sample Exercise 4.13: Drawing Resonance Structures Draw all the resonance structures of the nitrate ion.

Three possible Lewis structures. Which one is best? . Formal charge (FC): FC = # valence electrons – - [ (# lone pair e ) + ½ (# shared)] 3 4 17 2/16/2018 Calculating Formal Charges FC = # valence electrons – [ (# lone pair e-) + ½ (# shared)] Choosing the Best Lewis Structure . Most Stable Resonance Structures: • Formal charges equal or close to zero. • Negative formal charges on the more electronegative element. 18 2/16/2018 Practice: Formal Charge What is the most likely Lewis structure for CO2? Summary: Formal Charge and Lewis Structures A way to decide which Lewis Structure, out of several possibilities, that’s the most stable and therefore the most likely. 1. For neutral molecules, a Lewis structure in which there are no formal charges is preferable to one in which formal charges are present. 2. Lewis structures with large formal charges are less plausible than those with small formal charges. 3. Among Lewis structures having similar distributions of formal charges, the most plausible structure is the one in which negative formal charges are placed on the more electronegative atoms. 19 2/16/2018 Chapter Outline . 4.1 Types of Chemical Bonds . 4.2 Naming Compounds and Writing Formulas . 4.3 Lewis Structures . 4.4 Electronegativity, Unequal Sharing, and Polar Bonds . 4.5 Vibrating Bonds and the Greenhouse Effect . 4.6 Resonance . 4.7 Formal Charge: Choosing among Lewis Structures . 4.8 Exceptions to the Octet Rule . 4.8 The Lengths and Strengths of Covalent Bonds 3 9 Exceptions to the Octet Rule 1. The Incomplete Octet (Central atom in Group 3A) e.g. BF3 20 2/16/2018 Exceptions to the Octet Rule 2. Odd-Electron Molecules – “free radicals” (one unpaired electron = high reactivity) NO NO2 Exceptions to the Octet Rule 3. Expanded Octet – central atom has greater than 8 valence electrons surrounding it. Occurs only with elements in row 3 and higher because they have available d-orbitals A.
