Lewis structure

Draw the Lewis structure of silicon tetrabromide. Start by drawing the overall structure of the molecule: Count the total valence electrons of the bromine (n_Br, val = 7) and silicon (n_Si, val = 4) atoms: 4 n_Br, val + n_Si, val = 32 Calculate the number of electrons needed to completely fill the valence shells for bromine (n_Br, full = 8) and silicon (n_Si, full = 8): 4 n_Br, full + n_Si, full = 40 Subtracting these two numbers shows that 40 - 32 = 8 bonding electrons are needed. Each bond has two electrons, so the above diagram has all the necessary bonds. There are 4 bonds and hence 8 bonding electrons in the diagram. Lastly, fill in the remaining unbonded electrons on each atom. In total, there remain 32 - 8 = 24 electrons left to draw: Answer: | |
