— 2 for # of PAIRS Rules for making Lewis dot structures 1. Count no. of valence electrons (- don’t forget to include the charge on molecular ions!) 2. Place a bond pair (BP) between connected atoms 3. Complete octets by using rest of e- as lone pairs (LP) 4. For atoms with <8 e-, make multiple bonds to complete octets 5. Assign formal charges : fc = Z - (#BP/2) - (#LP) Indicate equivalent (RESONANCE) structures 6. Structures with smaller formal charges are preferred - consider non-octet alternatives (esp. for 3rd, 4th row) • OCTET RULE:#Bond Pairs + #Lone Pairs = 4 • (except for H and atoms of 3rd and higher periods) #lone pairs at central atom in AXn = {(#e-) - 8*n}/2 Bonding and structure (2)
Rules 1-3 O—S —O + + — — Sulfur Dioxide, SO2 These equivalent structures are called: RESONANCE STRUCTURES. The proper Lewis structure is a HYBRID of the two. Each atom has OCTET . . . . . BUT there is a +1 and -1 formal charge Bonding and structure (2)
O = S = O SO2 (2) Alternate Lewis structure for SO2 uses 2 double bonds Sulfur does not obey OCTET rule BUT the formal charge = 0 This is better structure than O=S+-O- since it reduces formal charge (rule 6). 3rd row S atom can have 5 or 6 electron pairs NB: # of central atom lone pairs = (3*6 -8*2)/2 = 1 in both O=S+-O- and O=S=O structures Bonding and structure (2)

Bond Polarity HCl is POLAR because it has a positive end and a negative end (partly ionic). Polarity arises because Cl has a greater share of the bonding electrons than H. Calculated charge by CAChe: H (red) is +ve (+0.20 e-) Cl (yellow) is -ve (-0.20 e-). (See PARTCHRG folder in MODELS.) Bonding and structure (2)
Bond Polarity (2) • Due to the bond polarity, the H—Cl bond energy is GREATER than expected for a “pure” covalent bond. BOND ENERGY “pure” bond 339 kJ/mol calculated real bond 432 kJ/mol measured Difference 92 kJ/mol. This difference is the contribution of IONIC bonding It is proportional to the difference in ELECTRONEGATIVITY, c. Bonding and structure (2)
Electronegativity, c c is a measure of the ability of an atom in a molecule to attract electrons to itself. Concept proposed by Linus Pauling (1901-94) Nobel prizes: Chemistry (54), Peace (63) See p. 425; 008vd3.mov (CD) Bonding and structure (2)
Electronegativity, c Figure 9.7 • F has maximum c. • Atom with lowest c is the center atom in most molecules. • Relative values of c determines BOND POLARITY (and point of attack on a molecule). Bonding and structure (2)

Molecular Polarity • Molecules—such as HCl and H2O— can be POLAR (or dipolar). • They have a DIPOLE MOMENT. • Polar molecules turn to align their dipole with an electric field. Bonding and structure (2)
Symmetric molecules Predicting molecular polarity A molecule will be polar ONLY if a) it contains polar bonds AND b) the molecule is NOT “symmetric” Bonding and structure (2)
