LAB REPORT ASSISTANT
This document is not meant to be a subsƟtute for a formal laboratory report. The Lab Report Assistant is simply a summary of the experiment’s quesƟons, diagrams if needed, and data tables that should be addressed in a formal lab report. The intent is to facilitate students’ wriƟng of lab reports by providing this informaƟon in an editable file which can be sent to an instructor.

For the following compounds, there is more than 1 central atom. Count the total number of valence electrons, divide by 2. Draw the Lewis Structures: share the electron pairs around each atom to complete the bonding. Recall that double and triple bonds may be necessary. Determine the structure on each of the central atoms.
Part B: PRACTICE EXAMPLES |

Count Valence E |
Formula |
Structure |
Molecular Geometry |
1 C = 4 3 H = 3 1 O = 6 1 H = 1 14 e/2 =7 pair |
CH3OH |
electron geometry C – tetrahedral O – tetrahedral |
C = tetrahedral O = bent 2 bonded 2 non bonded |
|
CH3NH2 |
|
|
|
CH2CH2 Looks like H2C – CH2 Hint ; double bond |
|
|
|
CH3OCH3 Looks like H3C – O – CH3 |
