Lewis structure
Draw the Lewis structure of nitric oxide. Start by drawing the overall structure of the molecule, ignoring potential double and triple bonds: Count the total valence electrons of the nitrogen (n_N, val = 5) and oxygen (n_O, val = 6) atoms: n_N, val + n_O, val = 11 Calculate the number of electrons needed to completely fill the valence shells for nitrogen (n_N, full = 8) and oxygen (n_O, full = 8): n_N, full + n_O, full = 16 Subtracting these two numbers shows that 16 - 11 = 5 bonding electrons are expected (in such cases with an odd number, round down to 4 bonding electrons). Each bond has two electrons, so in addition to the 1 bond already present in the diagram add 1 bond. Identify the atoms that want additional bonds and the number of electrons remaining on each atom: Fill in the 1 bond by pairing electrons between adjacent highlighted atoms: Answer: | |
