What is the Lewis structure for calcium nitride?

The Lewis structure for calcium nitride (Ca3N2) consists of one calcium atom with two nitrogen atoms bonded to it. The calcium atom donates two electrons to each nitrogen atom, forming ionic bonds. The calcium atom has a 2+ charge, while each nitrogen atom has a 3- charge.


NACL3 Lewis structure?

A couple problems with this question: 1. There is no such compound as NaCl3. 2. Sodium is an alkali metal and Cl is a halogen, and the two would always form the ionic compound NaCl, not a covalent compound. You cannot draw Lewis structures for ionic compounds. You can draw Lewis electron diagrams for the individual ions (Na+ and Cl-), but not a structure for the ionic compound.


The correct Lewis structure for a molecule of the compound C2H2 contains?
