Concept of hybridization involving s, p and d orbitals and shapes of some simple molecules |
| Lewis Structure for Simple molecules : www.aptacads.com Lewis Structure for Simple molecules Selection of central atom :
More electropositive element ( except hydrogen ) , as a rule of thumb Computing bond pairs and lone pairs :
Step 1 : Compute total number of valence electrons (A) in all the atoms present, including the charge on the species.
Step 2 : Compute required no. of valence electrons ( N ) for attaining stable configuration for all the atom in the molecule |
| Illustrative Problem : www.aptacads.com Illustrative Problem Draw Lewis structure of PH3 Central atom : P Computing bond pairs and lone pairs :

Step 2 : Compute required no. of valence electrons
N = 1*8 + 3*2 = 14 |

| Limitation of octet rule : www.aptacads.com Limitation of octet rule Incomplete Octet of Central Atom In BF3 and AlCl3 ,the central metal atom contains 6 electrons so they are electron deficient species. When central atom has less than four valence electrons , incomplete octet may occur |
| VSEPR theory : VSEPR theory Explains shape of covalent molecules
Shape of molecule depends on repulsions between electron pairs in valence shell around central atom Pairs of electrons tend to occupy such positions in space that minimize repulsion to increase stability The valence shell is taken as a sphere with the electron pairs localizing on the spherical surface A multiple bond is treated as if it is a single electron pair |
| VSEPR theory : VSEPR theory Decreasing Order of repulsion lone pair - lone pair > lone pair –bond pair > bond pair - bond pair Why lp- lp repulsion is more compared to lp-bp :
Lone pair electrons are localised on the central atom
Hence , lone pairs occupy more space in a molecule as compared to the bonding pair of electrons.
Therefore to remain at maximum possible distance and thereby attaining stability, lp- lp repulsion is more compared to lp-bp |
| Structure of the molecule using VSEPR theory : Structure of the molecule using VSEPR theory Draw electron dot structure
Determine no. of electron pairs around the central atom , count multiple bond as one.
Arrange the electron pairs in to regular geometrical shapes without differentiating between lone pair and bond pairs
If lone pairs are present around central atom , use the following concept to finalise structure Decreasing Order of repulsion lone pair - lone pair > lone pair –bond pair > bond pair - bond pair Electron pair repulsion is negligible if angle between two electron pairs >1000 |
