LESSON 1:
• Electrons are shown as dots and bonding atoms as lines between two atoms
4 Distribute the remaining valence electrons first to the attached atoms and
then to the central atom. Check for octet rule and form multiple bond if

Draw lewis diagram for each of the atom as shown below. Electrons will be 16
represented by dots.
STE P 2
Carbon will be the central atom because it has higher covalency

STE P 4
Can we form other structure
beside this one?
Resonance structures are sets of Lewis structures that describe the delocalization
electrons in a polyatomic ion or a molecule. In many cases, a single Lewis structu
fails to explain the bonding in a molecule/polyatomic ion due to the presence of
partial charges and fractional bonds in it.

REPULSON
(VSPER) THEORY
VSPER THEORY
• The shape of the molecule is determined by the repulsions
between all electrons present in the valence shell
• Electron pairs in the valence shell of the central atom repel
each other and align themselves to minimize this repulsion
• Lone pair takes up more space than bond pair
• Lone paire attracted to one nucleus but bond pair is shared by
two nuclei
