Rules (continued) LDD Example #1
7 8
Complete _________ of each of the surrounding Example: polyatomic ions NH4 + (no electron on one
atoms H atom)
Place remaining electrons in______________. If
the central atom does not have an octet, ________
____________________________between the
central atom and surrounding atoms. This will make
_________ and ______ bonds
For a polyatomic, draw __________ and give NOTE: Sometimes the octet rule is not necessary in all
________________ for the ion. molecules. (only for 3rd period elements and on…
need to have a ‘d’ orbital.. explained later)
