What is the octet rule and how does it apply to drawing Lewis Dot Structures and Structural Formulas?

Learning Intentions

• We will learn how to apply the octet rule to predict bonding in molecules.

Closing Task:

You can draw the Lewis dots structures and structural formulas for molecules that contain double and triple bonds. 

Content Standards being covered:

Student understands why bonding occurs between atoms, what types of bonds form when different elements interact, how the bonds form and properties that arise as result of the bond forming.
