Additional Info
  • try to do just the remaining Lewis diagrams from the in-class Model-building activity; I will give you a little bit of time in class to work out the 3-D structures/shapes (although you should now be able to PREDICT using your Lewis structures!)
  • watch the Butler Screencast on expanded octets (involving 5 electron areas) in the Ch. 8-9 resources; feel free to speed up the play-back speed so it doesn't take 25 minutes
  • Delve into textbook Problem set 8-3. Make sure to do them as we've practiced -- doing the electron count first, using a Lewis diagram (if needed), to help you predict how many electron areas are around the central atom and what the 3-D shape will need to be, and SKETCH the structural diagram, showing all of the valence electrons.
