Interpretation: The Lewis dot structure of the atoms has to be found by using their valence electrons present in the outermost shell.
Concept introduction: Lewis dot structures are also called electron dot structures. The diagrams are named after Gilbert N. Lewis, who described them in his 1916 article entitled The Atom and the Molecule.
A nucleus of an atom consists of neutrons and protons. Electrons are from closest to outermost shells around the nucleus. Proton and electron have +1 and -1 charge respectively. Neutron has no charge.
Number of protons is equal to number of electrons in the case of neutral atoms.
The number of electrons present in the outermost shell of an atom that participate in forming
Each group present in the periodic table has specific common valence electrons. Therefore, the position of the atom in the periodic table should be known for drawing the Lewis dot structures.
To find: Draw the Lewis dot structure of a boron atom

Generate a molecular orbital diagram but this time using a different approach that draws on your knowledge and ability to put concepts together. First use VSEPR or some other method to make sure you know the ground state structure of the molecule. Next, generate an MO diagram for BH2. Sketch the highest occupied and lowest unoccupied MOs of the BH2 fragment. These are called frontier orbitals. Now use these frontier orbitals as your basis set for producing LGO's for B2H6. Since the BH2 frontier orbitals become the LGOS, you will have to think about what is in the middle of the molecule and treat its basis as well. Do you arrive at the same qualitative MO diagram as is discussed in the book? Sketch the new highest occupied and lowest unoccupied MOs for the molecule (B2H6).arrow_forward
