Study Notes
Lewis Model Predictions
- The Lewis model predicts that the chemical formula for the compound formed between fluorine and calcium is CaF2.
- For potassium and sulfur, the predicted formula is K2S.
- The formula for a compound made of aluminum and phosphorus is predicted to be AlP.
Lewis Structures
- The correct Lewis structure for Br2 features each bromine atom with three lone pairs, depicted as:
: Br..⋅⋅ - Br..⋅⋅ :. - For O2, the Lewis structure is shown as:
O..⋅⋅=O..⋅⋅. - Carbon monoxide (CO) contains 6 bonding electrons in its Lewis structure.
Chlorate Anion and Electrons Calculation
- The central atom in the chlorate anion, ClO3-, is surrounded by three bonding pairs and one unshared pair of electrons.
- When calculating the number of electrons for the Lewis structure of a polyatomic ion, it's not necessary to subtract one electron for each negative charge.
Valence Electrons and Resonance Structures
- The Lewis structure for CO2 does not show the carbon atom with two sets of lone pair electrons.
- The ammonium ion is determined to not contain 10 valence electrons.
- Molecules that are exceptions to the octet rule include all atoms presented in the question.
Specific Structures and Terminal Atoms
- The correct resonance structures for SeO2 include:
O..⋅⋅ = Se..- O..⋅⋅ : ↔ : O..⋅⋅ - Se..= O..⋅⋅. - Hydrogen atoms are most likely to be terminal in a Lewis structure due to their single bonding capability.
- H2O is not capable of having resonance structures, unlike other molecules discussed.
Summary of Provided Structures
- Several molecules require correct Lewis structures, including SeO2, CO32-, ClO-, and ClO2-, though specific structures are not detailed.
