Valence electrons are the outer shell electrons of an

atom. The valence electrons are the electrons that

particpate in chemical bonding.

In the period 1916-1919, two Americans, G.N. Lewis and Irving Langmuir, and a German,

Walther Kossel, advanced an important proposal about chemical bonding: Something

unique in the electron configurations of noble gas atoms accounts for their inertness,

and atoms of other elements combine with one another to acquire electronconfigurations like noble gas atoms.

Some fundamental ideas of Lewis theory

Electrons, especially those of the outermost (valence) electronic shell, play a

fundamental role in chemical bonding.

In some cased electrons are transferred from one atom to another. Positive and

negative ions are formed and attract each other through electrostatic forces called ionic

bonds.

In other cases one or more pairs of electrons are

sharedbetween atoms, this sharing ofelectrons is called covalent bond.

Electrons are transferred, or shared, in such a way that each atom acquires an

especially stable electron configuration. Usually this is a noble gas configuration, one

with eight outer shell electrons, or an octet.

Lewis symbol consists of a chemical symbol to represent the nucleus and core

(inner shell) electrons of an atom, together with dots placed around the symbol to

represent the valence (outer shell) electrons.

Write the Lewis symbol of the following elements

1. Si 2. N 3. P 4. As 5. Sb 6. Bi 7. Al 8. Al 9. Al 10. I 11. Se 12. Ar

Write the Lewis symbol of the following

1. Sn 2. Br 3. Na+ 4. S2-

Lewis structure is a combination of Lewis symbols that represents either

the transfer or sharing of electrons in a chemical bond.

Write Lewis structures for the following compounds

(a) BaO (b) MgCl2 (c) Al2O3 (d) Na2S

(e) Mg3N2 (f) calcium iodide (g)barium sulfide (h) lithium oxide
