Lewis structures H H H H O O A Lewis structure is a representation of covalent bonding in which shared electrons pairs are shown either as lines or as pairs of dots between two atoms, and lone pairs are shown as pairs of dots on individual atoms.
Writing Lewis Structures • Draw skeletal structure of compound showing what atoms are bonded to each other. Put least electronegative element in the center. • Count total number of valence e-. Add 1 for each negative charge. Subtract 1 for each positive charge. • Use valence e- determined in (2) to complete octets of atoms bonded to central atom (except hydrogen) • If central atom has less than an octet, form double and triple bonds on central atom as needed. 9.6

F N F F Step 1 – N is less electronegative than F, put N in center Step 2 – Count valence electrons N - 5 (2s22p3) and F - 7 (2s22p5) 5 + (3 x 7) = 26 valence electrons Step 3 – Draw single bonds between N and F atoms and complete octets on N and F atoms. Step 4 - Does central atom have an octet? yes 3 single bonds (3x2) + 10 lone pairs (10x2) = 26 valence electrons 9.6

The sum of the formal charges of the atoms in a molecule or ion must equal the charge on the molecule or ion. 9.7

Which is the most likely Lewis structure for CH2O? H C O H H C O H -1 +1 0 0 Formal Charge and Lewis Structures • For neutral molecules, a Lewis structure in which there are no formal charges is preferable to one in which formal charges are present. • Lewis structures with large formal charges are less plausible than those with small formal charges. • Among Lewis structures having similar distributions of formal charges, the most plausible structure is the one in which negative formal charges are placed on the more electronegative atoms. 9.7
Back to CO2- O C O O Figure out which atoms have the charge.
Write Lewis structures for the following: • Draw skeletal structure of compound showing what atoms are bonded to each other. In general, least electronegative element goes in the center. • Hydrogen and fluorine usually occupy the periphery (terminal positions in the Lewis structure). Sometimes the higher symmetry structure is the correct one. HCN BF3 CHFO SnO2 These correct Lewis structures should help you answer 9.23.
- - + + O O O O O O A resonance structure is one of two or more Lewis structures for a single molecule that cannot be represented accurately by only one Lewis structure. Expect one O-O bond to be longer than the other if ozone really does contain one double bond and one single bond. O-O : 148 pm O=O : 121 pm Experimental evidence shows that bond oxygen-to-oxygen bonds are equal in length (128 pm). 9.8

Bond energies in thermochemistry • Energy is always required to break a bond. • Energy is always released when a bond is formed. • Whether a reaction is exothermic depends on the relative strengths of the bonds in the product(s) compared to those in the starting material(s).
Bond Energies (BE) and Enthalpy changes in reactions Imagine a reaction proceeding by breaking all bonds in the reactants and then using the gaseous atoms to form all the bonds in the products.
