  1. Drawing Lewis Structures and VSEPR

  2. Draw basic Lewis dot structures of atoms and • compounds. • Using VSEPR, predict bond shape from electron arrangement in Lewis dot diagram. Additional KEY Terms

  3. OCTET RULE: • atoms will gain, lose or share electrons to fill their valence shell (noble gas) • use only valence electrons in Lewis dot.

  4. STEPS / RULES TO LEWIS DOT: • Determine total valence electrons for all atoms. ~Watch for negative/positive/polyatomic ions. • Position least electronegative atom in the centre. • ~central atom usually first in formula (unless H/ F). • CH2ClF, SeCl2, O3 (CO2, NH3, PO43-) • Write other atoms around central with line bond. • ~line represents 2 e- (must be subtracted from total) – Cl Cl – Se

  5. Place electrons around each atom to fill valence. • Too few electrons - give each atom a complete octet by adding double or triple bonds. SeCl2 : 6 +7 + 7 = 20 - 4       – Cl Cl – Se          

  9. VSEPR Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion Theory • Predicts 3D structures of molecules. • Shape calculated by comparing bonding and lone • pairelectrons around the central atom. • Minimizes the electrostatic repulsion between • electrons in valence sublevels.

  10. AXE method: A: Central atom Xn: # of bonding pairs En: # lone pairs

  13. Central Atom with LONE pairs: Lone pairs have a greater repulsion force and distort the predicted bond angles. H2S : 1 + 1 + 6 = 8 - 4 *Predict Linear   H – – H S   2 – bonding pairs (X2) 2 – lone pairs (E2) Bent – 104.5obond angle
