Term
Hint for Step 1 of building molecules |
|
Definition
If - charge, add 1 electron for every - charge. For + charge, subtract 1 electron. |
|
|
Term
Step 2 for building molecules |
|
Definition
Determine number of electrons needed to FILL valence |
|
|
Term
Step 3 for building molecules |
|
Definition
Take half the number of bonding electrons |

|
Term
Step 4 for building molecules |
|
Definition
Calculate # non-bonding electrons. Subtract bonding (step 1) from valence (step 2). |
|
|
Term
Step 5 for building molecules |
|
Definition
Build molecule, remembering to complete valence and add lone pair electrons if necessary. |
|
|
Term
Definition: Formal Charge |
|
Definition
The charge an atom would have it all bonding electrons were shared equally between bonded atoms |
|
|
Term
Formula for formal charge |
|
Definition
# valence electrons - # non-bonding electrons - # bonds gives the charge. |
|
|
Term
What kinds of atoms have formal charge? |
|
Definition
Only atoms that do not have the typical number of bonds have a formal charge. |
|
|
Term
What's the pattern for electronegativity on the periodic table? |
|
Definition
Electronegativity increases towards fluorine (up and right) |
