Bonding Models and Lewis Structures

In this drawing Lewis structures worksheet, students read about the 5 steps taken to draw Lewis structures for atoms and molecules. These include identifying the valence electrons, placing pairs of electrons between atoms to be bonded,...

In this Lewis structures worksheet, learners draw molecular structures for twelve molecules. They determine the number of bonds in the molecular formula by following step by step directions given on the worksheet.

In this Lewis structures worksheet, high schoolers read about drawing Lewis structures and how to identify valence electrons. They draw Lewis structures for eight given compounds.

Four pages provide plenty of problem solving practice for chemistry whizzes. They answer questions and write electron configurations for ions. They use Lewis dot diagrams to display equations. Covalent bonds are explored. The last half...

A model is worth a thousand words. Young scholars use what they know about the structure of hydrocarbons to build Lewis dot structures and molecular models. Their tasks include multiple bonds, geometric hybrids, and various isomers.

Food always gets attention! Model atomic structure using fruit loops to represent the subatomic particles. After building models, scholars create ionic bonds using their models. Finally, they use these concepts to create a periodic...

"The name is Bond. James Bond." Or is that "Chemical Bond?" Assign the viewing of the video as homework, and then have your chemists come to class to practice drawing electron dot diagrams and Lewis structures with the several bonus...

A slide show with several slides dedicated to the topic of resonance in Lewis structures. Diagrams help illustate the examples. A practice example is provided.

The first of two worksheets methodically prepares chemistry novices for naming polyatomic compounds. It begins by having them acknowledge the number of each atom contained in a molecule. Then learners list the valence electrons for a...

Share this video with your class and explore the conditions that make covalent bonding possible. Examining the complex series of attractive and repulsive forces that exist between atoms, this video explains how at just the right...
