What is the Lewis structure for gef4?

Answer 1

The Lewis dot structure for Xe starts with the Xe atom in the center. There are six possible bond locations for Xe, on four of them there is a singly bonded H atom. On the other two are a pair of dots.

Answer 2

The xenon is the central atom and is singly bonded to the 4 fluorides. The fluorides all have 3 lone electron pairs (6 free electrons) and the xenon has 2 lone electron pairs (4 free electrons).

Hope this helps!

Answer 3

The Lewis structure for GeF4 is a trigonal bipyramidal shape with the germanium atom in the center and four fluorine atoms bonded to it. The germanium atom has 5 valence electrons, so it forms 4 single bonds with fluorine atoms, satisfying the octet rule for all atoms in the molecule.

Answer 4

It is impossible to draw a Lewis dot structure with letters. However, Gel4 has 4 atoms. Ge has a +4 charge, with l4 having a -1. Based on this information, the structure can easily be drawn.

Answer 5

This dot structure has the Ge atom in the center. At each cardinal direction lies a singly bonded F atom with three pairs of dots.
