Draw the Lewis structure of periodic acid. Start by drawing the overall structure of the molecule, ignoring potential double and triple bonds: Count the total valence electrons of the hydrogen (n_H, val = 1), iodine (n_I, val = 7), and oxygen (n_O, val = 6) atoms: 5 n_H, val + n_I, val + 6 n_O, val = 48 Calculate the number of electrons needed to completely fill the valence shells for hydrogen (n_H, full = 2), iodine (n_I, full = 8), and oxygen (n_O, full = 8): 5 n_H, full + n_I, full + 6 n_O, full = 66 Subtracting these two numbers shows that 66 - 48 = 18 bonding electrons are needed, which are already accounted for in the structure. However, electronegativity considerations may still force more bonds to form. To minimize formal charge oxygen wants 2 bonds. Identify the atom that wants additional bonds and the number of electrons remaining on each atom: Atoms with large electronegativities can minimize their formal charge by forcing atoms with smaller electronegativities on period 3 or higher to expand their valence shells. The electronegativities of the atoms are 2.20 (hydrogen), 2.66 (iodine), and 3.44 (oxygen). Because the electronegativity of iodine is smaller than the electronegativity of oxygen, expand the valence shell of iodine to 7 bonds: Answer: | |
