Question:
Draw a Lewis structure for NHF_2 in which the central N atom obeys the octet rule, and answer the following questions based on your drawing.
The number of lone pairs on the central N atom is: _
The central N atom forms_ single bonds.
The central N atom forms_ double bonds.
Lewis Structure:
The Lewis structure of a molecule is a simple two-dimensional representation of the structure of a molecule.
It represents the chemical bonds by straight lines at right angles and the lone pair electrons are represented by two dots around the symbol of the element.
The octet rule states that atoms form bonds and hence form a molecule by sharing their valence electrons with the other atoms for achieving a set of exactly eight electrons in their valence shell.
