Question
Chapter 7, Problem 7.27P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason for the ability of phosphorus to accommodate more than eight electrons in its electron-dot structure should be explained.
Concept introduction:
Every atom needs a complete valence shell to achieve a noble gas configuration by making bonds with other atoms. But there are some exceptions to this. Some atoms can accommodate electrons lower than 8, for example H. Some atoms of elements can accommodate more than 8 electrons.

Of the following elements, which could be a central atom with an expanded octet?
C
N
O
F
S
Which of the following can NOT be an exception to the octet rule?
Phosphorus
Fluorine
Hydrogen
Sulfur
When atoms react to form chemical bonds, only the electrons in the outermost or
valence shell are involved. Thus, the configuration of the valence shell is important
in bond formation. In order to place emphasis on the electrons in the outermost shell,
a special symbol known as Lewis diagram (also called electron-dot structures) is used.
Assuming that, element P has seven electrons, while element Q has eight electrons.
When element P shared electrons with element Q, it will form an anion.
Illustrate a 'dot and cross' diagram to show the bonding between element P and
element Q.
Based on the diagram, indicate the shape and the angle bond. Explain your answer.
