Module 4-6 and 12 Flashcards
It is a symbol in which electrons in the valence shell of an atom are represented by dots
Lewis Symbol
is a graphic representation of the electron distribution in a
compound or an ion.
Lewis Structure
- For ________, increase the number of available electrons by the charge of anion;
- For ________, decrease the number of available electrons by the charge of the cation.
- an anion
- a cation
ANION =
CATION =
ANION = NEGATIVE
CATION = POSITIVE
Formula of formal charge?
(no. of bonded electrons + no. of non-bonded electrons) or (no. of lines + no. of dots)
states that a molecule will adjust its shape so that the valence electron pairs (these can either be a bonding pair or a lone pair) stay as far apart from each other as possible.
VSEPR model
- molecule is not symmetric.
- it has a net dipole moment
Polar
- molecule is completely symmetric
- have no net dipole moment
Nonpolar
is a part of a larger molecule and is composed of an atom or group of atoms that have characteristic chemical behavior of an organic compound.
