Lewis structure
Draw the Lewis structure of geranyl bromide. Start by drawing the overall structure of the molecule, ignoring potential double and triple bonds: Count the total valence electrons of the bromine (n_Br, val = 7), carbon (n_C, val = 4), and hydrogen (n_H, val = 1) atoms: n_Br, val + 10 n_C, val + 17 n_H, val = 64 Calculate the number of electrons needed to completely fill the valence shells for bromine (n_Br, full = 8), carbon (n_C, full = 8), and hydrogen (n_H, full = 2): n_Br, full + 10 n_C, full + 17 n_H, full = 122 Subtracting these two numbers shows that 122 - 64 = 58 bonding electrons are needed. Each bond has two electrons, so in addition to the 27 bonds already present in the diagram add 2 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 2 bonds by pairing electrons between adjacent highlighted atoms: Answer: | |
