Lewis structure

Draw the Lewis structure of tetrahydrocannabinol. Start by drawing the overall structure of the molecule, ignoring potential double and triple bonds:  Count the total valence electrons of the carbon (n_C, val = 4), hydrogen (n_H, val = 1), and oxygen (n_O, val = 6) atoms: 21 n_C, val + 30 n_H, val + 2 n_O, val = 126 Calculate the number of electrons needed to completely fill the valence shells for carbon (n_C, full = 8), hydrogen (n_H, full = 2), and oxygen (n_O, full = 8): 21 n_C, full + 30 n_H, full + 2 n_O, full = 244 Subtracting these two numbers shows that 244 - 126 = 118 bonding electrons are needed. Each bond has two electrons, so in addition to the 55 bonds already present in the diagram add 4 bonds. To minimize formal charge carbon wants 4 bonds. Identify the atoms that want additional bonds and the number of electrons remaining on each atom:  Fill in the 4 bonds by pairing electrons between adjacent highlighted atoms. Note that the six atom ring is aromatic, so that the single and double bonds may be rearranged: Answer: |   |
