Lewis structure
Draw the Lewis structure of trichloro(cyclohexylmethyl)silane. Start by drawing the overall structure of the molecule: Count the total valence electrons of the carbon (n_C, val = 4), chlorine (n_Cl, val = 7), hydrogen (n_H, val = 1), and silicon (n_Si, val = 4) atoms: 7 n_C, val + 3 n_Cl, val + 13 n_H, val + n_Si, val = 66 Calculate the number of electrons needed to completely fill the valence shells for carbon (n_C, full = 8), chlorine (n_Cl, full = 8), hydrogen (n_H, full = 2), and silicon (n_Si, full = 8): 7 n_C, full + 3 n_Cl, full + 13 n_H, full + n_Si, full = 114 Subtracting these two numbers shows that 114 - 66 = 48 bonding electrons are needed. Each bond has two electrons, so the above diagram has all the necessary bonds. There are 24 bonds and hence 48 bonding electrons in the diagram. Lastly, fill in the remaining unbonded electrons on each atom. In total, there remain 66 - 48 = 18 electrons left to draw: Answer: | |
