Step 1 – Count the total number of valence electrons in the structureStep 2 – Arrange the peripheral atoms around the central atom/structure and single bond themStep 3 – Place remaining electrons around peripheral atoms. Place any extra electrons around the central atom.Step 4 – Calculate the formal charges and minimize it by preparing resonance structures

Formal Charge = Valence electrons – lone pair electrons – bonds

Understanding Line Diagrams 19

© Pavel SedachLearnfaster.ca

C has 4 bonds, N has 3 bonds, O has 2 bonds.

To save time drawingstructures, we form line diagrams

Because C behaves so reproducibly and forms 4 bonds, we can use line diagrams to represent organic structures. Every vertex(intersection of 2 or more lines) is a carbon atom and it is assumed that C forms 4 bonds

Understanding Line Diagrams 20

Drawing Proper Tetrahedral Shapes 22

© Pavel SedachLearnfaster.ca

There are VERY few ways to draw a proper tetrahedral structure. Fundamental structures are circled above in the same color.

For organic structures, we typically put a straight chain and just have wedge/hash poking out to one side:

All of these drawings represent EXACTLY the same molecule viewed from different angles

What is wrong with the structures below?

Effective nuclear charge = # protons - # core electrons.

It’s essentially an estimate of the number of protons pulling that electron in towards the atom.If an electron feels a higher effective nuclear charge, it is HARDER to remove.
