Lewis Theory of Covalent Bonding- The driving force of bond formation is the desire of each atom in a molecule to attain an octet of electrons in its valence shell.
|
||
|
A.
Covalent Bond- A chemical bond that is
formed from a pair of “shared” electrons between two atoms |
||
|
|
1. Caused by a small difference in
electronegativities of the bonded atoms |
|
|
|
|
General Rule for covalent bonds: a. If
Delectronegativities < 2.0 (1.7) b. If Allen Factor is < 0.4
|
|
|
2. General Characteristics |
|
|
|
|
a.
typically
between 2 nonmetals b.
occur
from an “overlapping” of orbitals where shared electrons are attracted by
both nuclei c.
very
strong bonds.
|

|
|
3. Lewis Structures- Diagrams that show how the valence electrons are arranged among the atoms in the molecule showing how the atoms bond. |
||||
|
|
|
a. The valence electrons about
an atom in a molecule as either: |
|||
|
|
|
|
1. Shared
electrons (bonded electrons) |
||
|
|
|
|
2.
Unshared
electrons (lone pair electrons)
|
||
|
|
|
b. Guidelines for writing Lewis Structures. |
|||
|
|
|
|
1. |
Draw a simple structural formula using single covalent bonds.
The least electronegative atom serves as the central atom. ** Never use Hydrogen as the central atom**
|
|
|
|
|
|
2.
Determine the total number of valence electrons in the molecule or ion. |
||
|
|
|
|
|
a. For molecules- sum of the valence electrons on each atom |
|
|
|
|
|
|
b. For cations- sum of the valence electrons on each atom
– the charge of the cation |
|
|
|
|
|
|
c. For anions- sum of the valence electrons on each atom +
the charge of the anion
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. |
Deduct 2 valence electrons for each bond from 2., then distribute the remaining about each atom as lone pairs to fill the octet (8). If too few electrons exist, convert single bonds to multiple bonds. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Most multiple bonds occur between Carbon(s), Oxygen(s), Nitrogen(s), Sulfur, & Phosphorus.

4. Formal Charge- The hypothetical charge assigned to each atom in a Lewis structure
|
||||
|
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
a. Rules for calculating Formal Charge |
|||
|
|
|
|
1. One half of the electrons in a bond are assigned to each atom. (1 each for single, 2 each for double, etc.) 2. Both electrons of an unshared pair are assigned to the atom to which the unshared electron belongs.
|
||
|
|
|
b. Formal Charge = the number of valence electrons in the free atomic state minus the number of assigned electrons of the atom in a molecule. |
|||
|
|
|
|
1. the sum of the formal charges of a molecule should equal zero, while the sum of the formal charges of an ion should equal the charge of the ion. 2. formal charges are used to predict structural formulas for varying Lewis structures for any molecule.
|
||
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
c. Rules for predicting Lewis Structures using Formal Charges |
|||
|
|
|
|
1. A Lewis structure in which all formal charges in a molecule are zero is preferable to one in which some formal charges are not zero. 2. If Lewis structures must have nonzero formal charges, the one with the lowest number of nonzero formal charges is preferable, and a Lewis structure with no more than one large formal charge (-2,+2,etc.) is preferable to one with several 3. Lewis structures should have adjacent formal charges of zero or have opposite sign. 4. When we must choose among several Lewis structures with similar distributions of formal charges, the structure with the negative formal charges on the more electronegative atoms is preferable.

|||
|
h. Hydrogen is assigned a –1 with less electronegative atoms and +1 with greater electronegative atoms i. The sum of the oxidation numbers of all the atoms in a compound is zero. The sum of the oxidation numbers in an ion is equal to the charge of the ion.
