Read each question carefully and follow the instructions to draw Lewis structures or answer questions about them. Remember to show all valence electrons and formal charges where applicable.
1. Draw the Lewis structure for water (H₂O).
2. Draw the Lewis structure for carbon dioxide (CO₂).
3. Draw the Lewis structure for ammonia (NH₃).
1. In a Lewis structure, a single dash represents two shared electrons.
True
False
2. All atoms in a stable Lewis structure must satisfy the octet rule.
True
False
1. The total number of valence electrons in a Lewis structure for a neutral molecule is the sum of the valence electrons from each in the molecule.
