LAB REPORT ASSISTANT
This document is not meant to be a subsƟtute for a formal laboratory report. The Lab Report Assistant is simply a summary of the experiment’s quesƟons, diagrams if needed, and data tables that should be addressed in a formal lab report. The intent is to facilitate students’ wriƟng of lab reports by providing this informaƟon in an editable file which can be sent to an instructor.
OBSERVATIONS
Part A: PRACTICE EXAMPLES | |||
Count Valence e- | Formula | Electron Geometry | Molecular Geometry |
1 N = 5 3 H = 3 8 / 2 = 4 pair |
NH3 |
Tetrahedral |
Trigonal pyramidal |
|
H2O |
|
|
|
CBr4 |
|
|
| SO3 This is not a polyatomic ion … No charge!!! |
|
|
|
PI3 |
|
|
|
CH3Cl Carbon is the central atom |
|
|
|
NO 1- 3 |
|
|
|
CO 2- 3 |
|
|
|
NH +1 4 |
|
|
|
CH4 |
|
|
|
SO2 |

For the following compounds, there is more than 1 central atom. Count the total number of valence electrons, divide by 2. Draw the Lewis Structures: share the electron pairs around each atom to complete the bonding. Recall that double and triple bonds may be necessary. Determine the structure on each of the central atoms.
Part B: PRACTICE EXAMPLES | |||
Count Valence E | Formula | Structure | Molecular Geometry |
1 C = 4 3 H = 3 1 O = 6 1 H = 1 14 e/2 =7 pair |
CH3OH |
electron geometry C – tetrahedral O – tetrahedral |
C = tetrahedral O = bent 2 bonded 2 non bonded |
|
CH3NH2 |
|
|
|
CH2CH2 Looks like H2C - CH2 Hint ; double bond |
|
|
|
CH3OCH3 Looks like H3C – O – CH3 |
