Rules for making Lewis dot structures
1. Count no. of valence electrons
(- don’t forget to include the charge on molecular ions!)
— 2 for # of PAIRS
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

SO2 (2)
Alternate Lewis structure for SO2 uses 2 double bonds
O=S=O
Sulfur does not obey OCTET rule
BUT the formal charge = 0
This is better structure than O=S+-Osince 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

AXnEm notation
• a good way to distinguish between
electron pair and molecular geometries
is the AXnEm notation
where:
A - atom whose local geometry is of interest
(typically the CENTRAL ATOM)
Xn - n atoms bonded to A
Em - m lone pair electrons at A
NH3 is AX3E system  pyramidal

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.
