Question

Construct the Lewis structure model for the covalent compoundhydrogen sulfide using the following steps.
1)The total number of valence electrons in the two hydrogen atomsis _____; the sulfur atom has _____. Hence, the total number ofvalence electrons in the compound is _____.
2)Write the atomic cores for the hydrogen atoms and the sulfur atomin the space below. Because sulfur is the central atom in thismolecule, arrange the cores so that the hydrogen atoms are oneither side of the sulfur atom.
3)Rewrite the atomic cores in the space below. Place an electronpair between each hydrogen atom and the sulfur atom.
4)Write the lewis structure for hydrogen sulfide in the box,distirbuting the remaining valence electrons so that the hydrogenatoms are in accordance with the duet rule and the sulfur atom isin accordance with the octet rule.
