C1+ C2 Flashcards
What is valency
Number of electrons on outer shell
What is represented in the Lewis representation?
Only the valence electrons are represented
What does the element letter represent ?
Kernel represents the nucleus and NON valence electrons
Octet rule
Aiming to achieve to valence e for H and 8 e for other elements as this makes it very stable
How to calculate charge
A.determine the number of valence electrons for A
B. For atom on the molecule add,no of non bonded valence electrons and half no of shared electrons B
Comparing charge
A=B no charge
If A<b>B the charge is positive by the difference</b>
What’s the octet rule
Aiming for an arrangement of 2 valence electrons around H and 8 around others as its stable and desirable
