a. How many sticks did you need to make the skeleton structure?____________ b. How many sticks are left over? ____________ If your model is to obey the octet rule, each ball must have four sticks in it except for hydrogen atom balls, which need and can only have one. Each atom in an octet rule species is surrounded by four pairs of electrons. c. How many holes remain to be filled? ____________ Fill them with the remaining sticks, which represent nonbonding electron pairs.

Part II Practicing Coordinate Covalent Bonding for Molecular compounds. Example: Given the molecular compound SO, draw the molecular compound using the coordinate covalent bonding model. A. Calculate the total number of electrons. S = 1x 6 = 6 electrons O = 4 x 6 = 24 electrons Charge -2 = 2 electrons Total = 32 electrons B. Determine Center Atom (look for the single element) in this case S. C. Now make a single bond to all other elements to the central atom. You have used 8 electrons of the 32. 0- D. Place electrons around the atoms that are bonded to the central atom so that each will have 8 electrons around them (in this case each oxygen needs 6 more electrons or 3 pairs of electrons). : E. Make sure that the central atom has a full octet (8 electrons). In this case it does, so you are done. If not, one of the lone pairs of electrons from an outer atom will share a second pair of electrons with the center atom. Finally be sure that you have used all your electrons and NO MORE!
