H, Li and Be striveto “look” like He. B is an exception to the noble gas paradigm.It’s happy surrounded by 6 electrons so the compound BH3 is stable.Try drawing a Lewis structure for methane.Draw Lewis dot structures for the halogens.Try oxygen and nitrogen.Notice that these all follow the octet rule!These also follow the octet rule!Bond Lengths and Covalent RadiusFigure 9.14: The HCl molecule.Figure 9.12: Molecular model of nitro-glycerin. What is the formula for thiscompound?Rules for drawing Lewis structures1. Count up all the valence electrons2. Arrange the atoms in a skeleton3. Have all atoms develop octets (except those around He)Figure 9.9: Model of CHI3Courtesy of Frank Cox.Make some Lewis Dot Structures with other elements:CH4 NH3H2OC2H6C2H6OCH2OLook at all these structures and make some bonding rules:The normal number of bonds that common elements make in covalent structures.Element # BondsCNOH, HalogensElement # BondsC 4N 3O 2H, Halogens 1Rules for drawing Lewis structures1.

Therefore this geometry is common to group II elements.Molecular Geometry = Linear ArrangementCO O......1800Carbon dioxide also has the same geometry, and is a linear molecule, but in this case, the bonds between the carbon and oxygens are double bonds.CO2The Two MolecularShapes of theTrigonal PlanarElectron-GroupArrangementAX3 Geometry - Trigonal PlanarBF3BFF F..................NOO O120012001200NO3-Boron TrifluorideNitrate AnionAll of the boron Family(IIIA)elements have the same geometry.

Then we write the partial orbital diagram for each central atom before and after the orbitals are hybridized.Postulating the Hybrid Orbitals in a MoleculeProblem: Describe how mixing of atomic orbitals on the central atoms leads to the hybrid orbitals in the following: a) Methyl amine, CH3NH2 b) Xenon tetrafluoride, XeF4Plan: From the Lewis structure and molecular shape, we know the number and arrangement of
