"To use Lewis theory to determine the formula of an ionic compound, determine the number of valence electrons lost by the metal to form an octet, and the number of electrons gained by the nonmetal to form an octet."

What is the Lewis theory formula for the compound that forms between Li and N?
LiN
What does the Lewis structure of OPBr3 look like?
The Lewis structure of compounds uses dots and bands to show bonds and molecules. It is the standard model used showing covalence and ionic bonds for compounds.
What year was the Valence Bond Theory invented?
Gilbert Lewis followed by Linus Pauling who is credited with the quantum mechanical approach, called valence bond theory (distinguishing it from the more recent molecular orbital theory), which is based on Lewis's electron pair bonding theory now taught as Lewis "dot" diagrams.
Use Lewis structures and vsepr theory to determine which ch4 and ch3cl are polar and non-polar?
CH3Cl is polar, CH4 is not. You'll have to do your own Lewis structures, and I'm personally a little mystified as to exactly what VSEPR has to do with it (if you were comparing CH4 with NH3 instead, then you'd need VSEPR).
Is AlCl3 Lewis acid or Lewis base?
Aluminium trichloride is a salt. It is considered an acid after Lewis theory.
Use Lewis theory to determine the formula for the compound that forms from Sr and Se?
SrSe
Lewis theory predicts that the formula for a compound between fluorine and calcium is?
CaF2
What is the Lewis theory formula for the compound that forms between Li and N?
LiN
Who found octet theory?
Lewis
How are atom arranged in molecular compounds?
Atoms are arranged in molecular compounds in groups.
Who is the formula racer?
Lewis Hamilton.

How are cricket scores calculated?
Cricket scores are calculated using a math formula called the Duckworth-Lewis method. Rather than a straight scoring method, cricket scores rely on this formula to determine the target score. It has many critics.
What motorsports has Lewis Hamilton taken part in?
Lewis Hamilton has raced in the British Formula Renault, Formula Three Euroseries, GP2 Championships and Formula One Grand Prix series.
