Lewis Structures 1) Count up total number of valence electrons 2) Connect all atoms with single bonds - “multiple” atoms usually on outside - “single” atoms usually in center; C always in center, H always on outside. 3) Complete octets on exterior atoms (not H, though) 4) Check - valence electrons match with Step 1 - all atoms (except H) have an octet;if not, try multiple bonds - any extra electrons?Put on central atom - no unpaired electrons (free radicals)
