  2. Lewis structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_structure

    [1] [2] [3] Introduced by Gilbert N. Lewis in his 1916 article The Atom and the Molecule, a Lewis structure can be drawn for any covalently bonded molecule, as well as coordination compounds. [4] Lewis structures extend the concept of the electron dot diagram by adding lines between atoms to represent shared pairs in a chemical bond.

  3. Molecular solid - Wikipedia

    The hydrogen bonding between the acetic acid molecules partially guides the organization of the crystal lattice structure. [26] (a) A lewis dot structure with the partial charges and hydrogen bond denoted with blue dashed line. A ball and stick model of acetic acid with hydrogen bond denoted with blue dashed line.

  4. Gilbert N. Lewis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilbert_N._Lewis

    Lewis worked with hydrogen and managed to purify a sample of heavy water. He then came up with his theory of acids and bases, and did work in photochemistry during the last years of his life. Though he was nominated 41 times, G. N. Lewis never won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry , resulting in a major Nobel Prize controversy .

  5. Chemical bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_bond

    Examples of Lewis dot diagrams used to represent electrons in the chemical bonds between atoms, here showing carbon (C), hydrogen (H), and oxygen (O). Lewis diagrams were developed in 1916 by Gilbert N. Lewis to describe chemical bonding and are still widely used today. Each line segment or pair of dots represents a pair of electrons.

    This is exemplified best in the case of the hydrogen fluoride molecule, the dot-and-cross diagram of which is shown on the right. Here, the Lewis structure drawn on the left of the image is compared with the LDQ line structure on the right of the image.

  7. Single bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_bond

    As a Lewis structure, a single bond is denoted as AːA or A-A, for which A represents an element. [2] In the first rendition, each dot represents a shared electron, and in the second rendition, the bar represents both of the electrons shared in the single bond. A covalent bond can also be a double bond or a triple bond. A single bond is weaker ...

  8. Chemical bonding of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_bonding_of_water

    The simple MO diagram of H 2 O is shown on the right. [2] [3] Following simple symmetry treatments, the 1s orbitals of hydrogen atom are premixed as a 1 and b 1. Orbitals of same symmetry and similar energy levels can then be mixed to form a new set of molecular orbitals with bonding, nonbonding, and antibonding characteristics. In the simple ...

  9. Structural formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_formula

    Lewis structures (or "Lewis dot structures") are flat graphical formulas that show atom connectivity and lone pair or unpaired electrons, but not three-dimensional structure. This notation is mostly used for small molecules. Each line represents the two electrons of a single bond. Two or three parallel lines between pairs of atoms represent ...
