Interpretation:
The Lewis structure of OH radical is to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
Lewis structures of molecules are drawn by considering the valence electrons present in each atom of the element.
Lewis structure of a molecule represents the type of bonds between the elements of the molecule.
In Lewis dot
In Lewis dot symbol, valence electrons are represented by dots.
Dots are placed above and below as well as to the left and right of symbol.
Number of dots is important in Lewis dot symbol but not the order in which the dots are placed around the symbol.
In writing symbol pairing is not done until absolutely necessary.
For metals, the number of dots represents the number of electrons that are lost when the atom forms a cation.
For second period nonmetals, the number of unpaired dots is the number of bonds the atom can form.
Atomic ions can also be represented by dot symbols, by simply adding (for anions) and subtracting (for cations) the appropriate number of dots from Lewis dot symbol.
