Writing Lewis Structures for Covalent Compounds 1. Write the correct skeletal structure for the molecule most metallic element generally central many molecules tend to be symmetrical halogens and hydrogen are generally terminal (attached to the ends) in oxyacids, the acid hydrogens are attached to an oxygen Write a Lewis structure for CO 2: O C O 10
Writing Lewis Structures for Covalent Compounds 2. Calculate the total number of valence electrons for the Lewis structure O C + __(# 2 of valence e– for __) = (# of valence e– for __) = 4 + 2(6) = 16 11
Writing Lewis Structures for Covalent Compounds 3. Attach atoms with pairs of electrons and subtract electrons used from total begin with bonding electrons then add lone pairs on attached atoms other than central finally add lone pairs on central atom if electrons still available if octet rule not satisfied on central atom, bring lone pairs in from attached atoms add bonding electrons first: O: C: O (4 out of 16 e– used) then add lone pairs on attached atoms: if octet not satisfied on central atom, bring in lone pairs 12
Writing Lewis Structures for Polyatomic Ions for anions, add 1 to the total number of electrons for the Lewis structure for 1 additional electron i. e. Write the Lewis structure for the cyanide ion: CN– total number of electrons for Lewis structure = (#valence e– C) + (#valence e– N) + 1 =4 + 5 + 1 =10 13
Writing Lewis Structures for Polyatomic Ions for cations, subtract 1 from the total number of electrons for the Lewis structure for 1 fewer electron i. e. Write the Lewis structure for the ammonium ion: NH 4+ total number of electrons for Lewis structure = (#valence e– N) + 4(#valence e– H) – 1 = 5 + 4(1) – 1 =8 14
Exceptions to the Octet Rule • The Lewis structure for NO (having odd number of electrons) • The Lewis structure that deals with boron (B): ü boron shares 3 electrons to form three single bonds • Beryllium (Be) shares 2 electrons to form two single bonds • The Lewis structures of SF 6 and PCl 5 (for elements in Period 3 or greater) 15
Resonance: Equivalent Lewis Structures for the Same Molecule Write the Lewis structure for SO 2: O S O # of electrons for Lewis structure = (#valence e– S) + 2(#valence e– O) = 6 + 2(6) = 18 16
Electronegativity and Polarity electronegativity – ability of an element to attract ______ electrons within a covalent bond 17
Electronegativity and Polarity Consider a covalent bond in water: dipole moment – a measure of the separation of charge in a bond or in a molecule _______ ürepresented by an arrow that points toward the negative charge polar covalent bond – a covalent bond that has a dipole moment; a covalent bond between atoms of electronegativities different ________ the greater the difference in electronegativities between atoms, the greater the dipole moment and the more polar the bond 18
Electronegativity and Polarity nonpolar (____ pure covalent bond) – a covalent bond with no dipole moment two atoms that form a covalent bond with identical electronegativities virtually ____ i. e. 19
Electronegativity and Polarity ∆ EN Electronegativity difference – _____ 20
Electronegativity and Polarity polar molecule – a molecule with polar bonds that add together to create a net dipole moment üthis is a case where polar bonds do not cancel each other nonpolar molecule – a molecule that has no net dipole moment üthis is a case where polar bonds cancel each other 21
Predicting Molecular Geometry • VSEPR Theory üValence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion • The shape around the central atom(s) can be predicted by assuming that the areas of electrons on the central atom will try to get as far from each other as possible üareas of negative charge will repel each other 22
Some Geometric Figures • Linear 180° ü 2 atoms on opposite sides of central atom ü 180° bond angles • Trigonal Planar ü 3 atoms form a triangle around the central atom ü Planar ü 120° bond angles 120° • Tetrahedral ü 4 surrounding atoms form a tetrahedron around the central atom ü 109. 5° bond angles 109. 5° 23
