Lewis structure

Draw the Lewis structure of bromoform. Start by drawing the overall structure of the molecule:  Count the total valence electrons of the bromine (n_Br, val = 7), carbon (n_C, val = 4), and hydrogen (n_H, val = 1) atoms: 3 n_Br, val + n_C, val + n_H, val = 26 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): 3 n_Br, full + n_C, full + n_H, full = 34 Subtracting these two numbers shows that 34 - 26 = 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 26 - 8 = 18 electrons left to draw: Answer: |   |
