Consider O2 Consider N2 Draw Lewis structures for the following compounds CH2O C2H4
B. Coordinate Covalent Bonds (less common) BH3 Electron deficient compound NH3 = Coordinate covalent bond
Draw Lewis structure for each of the following molecular formulas in the most stable form (by pure sharing of electrons). a) PCl3 b) C2F6 c) CH2O2 d) CH3N e) C2H2Cl2 f) N2O2
For compounds containing C, H, O, N (the big 4), and F, try this

E. Lewis structures of Polyatomic ions or molecules with a central atom. 1. Calculate the total number of valence electrons. 2 Draw a single bond between the central atom and each of the surrounding atoms. 3. Add nonbonding electrons to surrounding atoms such that each has an octet of electrons (2 on H). 4. Place the remaining electrons on the central atom. 5. If the central atom does not have octet of electrons, use one or two pairs of nonbonding e’s from the surround atoms to form double or triple bonds with the central atom. 6. Check the total number of electrons. NO2-
