[5] A trick is to count up valence electrons, then count up the number of electrons needed to complete the octet rule (or with hydrogen just 2 electrons), then take the difference of these two numbers. The answer is the number of electrons that make up the bonds. The rest of the electrons just go to fill all the other atoms' octets.
Protonation of lutidine gives lutidinium, [(CH 3) 2 C 5 H 3 NH] +, salts of which are sometimes used as a weak acid because the conjugate base (2,6-lutidine) is so weakly coordinating. In a similar implementation, 2,6-lutidine is thus sometimes used in organic synthesis as a sterically hindered mild base. [ 4 ]
When a spin-trapping agent, such as Fe(S 2 CNEt 2) 2 is present during the photolysis of Cr(CH 3 CN) 5 (NS) 2+, new S=1/2 EPR bands are observed, attributed to the formation of Fe(S 2 CNEt 2) 2 (NS), and the signal from Cr(CH 3 CN) 5 (NS) 2+ disappears. This suggests that the NS radical has transferred from the chromium complex to the iron complex.
It is named after Warren K. Lewis (1882–1975), [6] [7] who was the first head of the Chemical Engineering Department at MIT. Some workers in the field of combustion assume (incorrectly) that the Lewis number was named for Bernard Lewis (1899–1993), who for many years was a major figure in the field of combustion research.

Tin(II) bromide can act as a Lewis acid forming adducts with donor molecules e.g. trimethylamine where it forms NMe 3 ·SnBr 2 and 2NMe 3 ·SnBr 2 [11] It can also act as both donor and acceptor in, for example, the complex F 3 B·SnBr 2 ·NMe 3 where it is a donor to boron trifluoride and an acceptor to trimethylamine.
To obtain tin(II) acetate, tin(II) oxide is dissolved in glacial acetic acid and refluxed to obtain yellow Sn(CH 3 COO) 2 ·2CH 3 COOH when cooled. The acetic acid can be removed by heating under reduced pressure, and the white Sn(CH 3 COO) 2 crystals can be obtained by sublimation.
The ground state of S 2 is a triplet: a diradical, with two unpaired electrons like O 2 and SO. [6] It has the S-S bond length of 189 pm, much shorter than the S-S single bonds in S 8, which are 206 pm long.
Tin(II) sulfate (Sn S O 4) is a chemical compound.It is a white solid that can absorb enough moisture from the air to become fully dissolved, forming an aqueous solution; this property is known as deliquescence.
