[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.
SO 3 is the anhydride of H 2 SO 4. Thus, it is susceptible to hydration: SO 3 + H 2 O → H 2 SO 4 (Δ f H = −200 kJ/mol) [12] Gaseous sulfur trioxide fumes profusely even in a relatively dry atmosphere owing to formation of a sulfuric acid mist. SO 3 is aggressively hygroscopic. The heat of hydration is sufficient that mixtures of SO 3 and ...
BF 3 + OMe 2 → BF 3 OMe 2. Both BF 4 − and BF 3 OMe 2 are Lewis base adducts of boron trifluoride. Many adducts violate the octet rule, such as the triiodide anion: I 2 + I − → I − 3. The variability of the colors of iodine solutions reflects the variable abilities of the solvent to form adducts with the Lewis acid I 2.
In chemistry, a superacid (according to the original definition) is an acid with an acidity greater than that of 100% pure sulfuric acid (H 2 SO 4), [1] which has a Hammett acidity function (H 0) of −12. According to the modern definition, a superacid is a medium in which the chemical potential of the proton is higher than in pure sulfuric ...

The structure of the tetrathionate anion. The tetrathionate anion, S 4 O 2− 6, is a sulfur oxyanion derived from the compound tetrathionic acid, H 2 S 4 O 6. Two of the sulfur atoms present in the ion are in oxidation state 0 and two are in oxidation state +5. Alternatively, the compound can be viewed as the adduct resulting from the binding ...
The sulfonate ion. In organosulfur chemistry, a sulfonate is a salt, anion or ester of a sulfonic acid.Its formula is R−S(=O) 2 −O −, containing the functional group −S(=O) 2 −O −, where R is typically an organyl group, amino group or a halogen atom.
In effect, they considered nitrogen dioxide as an AX 2 E 0.5 molecule, with a geometry intermediate between NO + 2 and NO − 2. Similarly, chlorine dioxide (ClO 2) is an AX 2 E 1.5 molecule, with a geometry intermediate between ClO + 2 and ClO − 2. [citation needed] Finally, the methyl radical (CH 3) is predicted to be trigonal pyramidal ...
