no lone pairs
Carboanion
5 valence electrons
1 lone pair
best center atom of a molecule?
the one that can form most bonds
What to do with total valence electrons in a molecule?
find total number of VE’s, the find if its divisible by 8. If it is there are no lone pairs on central atom. If it isn’t then find the closest number that is divisible by 8 and subtract the total VE’s by the closest number. That number is the number of electrons on central atom.
ammonium
nitrogen with 1 less electron
amine
nitrogen with 5 Ve’s
anionic amine
nitrogen with an extra e
oxonium
oxygen with 1 less Ve
