How to Draw Lewis Structures, The Octet Rule and Exceptions | Study Chemistry With Us
I'll cover how to properly draw lewis structures of regular molecules and lewis structures of ions. We will also go over what the octet rule is and all the exceptions that go along with this. Plus we will talk about the valence electrons you will need to memorize for your next chemistry exam.

💁♀️ HI I'M MELISSA MARIBEL
I help students pass Chemistry and Organic Chemistry. I used to struggle with this subject, so when I finally graduated with a bachelor's degree in Chemistry, I became a tutor so that you wouldn't have to struggle like I did. I know that with the right help, YOU CAN LEARN ANYTHING!

I just wanted to say that I am 48 years old and I am not totally confident that I can finish my AA. I am taking Foundation of Chemistry. To my surprise, it is not just Chem, it's also Organic Chemistry and Physics. Because of life and adversity, my grades are not great. I am still working on bringing my GPA to 2.0. After 3 semesters, taking 1 to 2 classes each, my GPA is now 1.994 from 1.389. I was told by an planning advisor last year that I will NEVER make it into Medical School. This semester is off to a rocky start. But watching your video, I am actually excited. I took a quiz Friday and didn't pass it, but I still got a higher grade than I have before. I recognized most of the questions. It was only 5 of them, but if I had spent more time (more than 4 hour before the quiz was due) on watching your video and practiced, I believe that I would have passed it. I am horrible at taking test, no matter how much I studied. I have tested anxiety because of my low confidence in learning, absorbing and test taking. So today I watched a few of your videos from the beginning. I am going to do that everyday this week. I have a test due on Friday March 5th. I wish I could find the words that can express my appreciation for you and your videos. I am so scared, but I actually understand what I am learning from you. Thank you so much and I hope I don't offend you, but God bless you.

@@KH-ks7si you realize this topic comes back in general chemistry in college. in my first year, I've revisited so many things I've learned in high school in more depth and difficulty. you need to do it again in college just to get prereqs out of the way. you can start doing ochem and other things after you've passed gen chem.
Seriously thank you so much for these videos, I have been basically teaching myself Chem and I have learned more from your videos in one day then the entire month and a half I have been in school! Thank you!
WHAT WHAT WHAT THAT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE NOW THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!
Girl, god bless you! I’m trying to pass my chemistry placement test and this is helping me more than I ever would imagined! Keep it up
You are my life saver!!! Thank you!!!! Our Chem professor even suggested your videos to her entire class because you make Chem so much fun and achievable. Wouldn’t be enjoying Chem if it weren’t for you and my professor. Shout out to my favorite College Chem teacher, Professor Laura ❤️
Your free chemistry guide is a lifesaver!! Thank you for being awesome Melissa!
gah. so grateful I found you. I have a university professor who doesn't even lecture, just hands out readings, and is like enjoy--this has helped me SO much. Thank you.
Professor Melissa, thank you so much. Huge huge help. I was struggling understanding the exceptions with B and Be, also about the lone pairs and your student asked the precise question in my head (we already have to respect the total number of valence electrons involved and not go over them). Thanks a million!
Thanks for your videos! I appreciate when you point to things and the fact that I can see your face when you talk. I'm in an online chemistry course, where pointing to things and seeing a face is not a luxury! Haha! Between you and a couple other KZreadrs, I am confident I'll pass this class. Thanks so much!
We have a substitute in our chemistry class right now and let me just say your videos have been so helpful for me, thank you!
omg i wish every teacher was like you! i feel like i can pass my chem test now😭❤️
My senior 2022 currently soon to be a 22’ graduate Ms Melissa Is The Reason I have aceing ! my chemistry class thank you it’s not many like you !
Thank you so much. I'm studying for my exam and this is really helpful. I feel confident because of you!
oh this was totally great ! It helps me a lot to understand more about Lewis Structure. Thankyou for this.
OHHHH My GOSHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! Although I spent more than 4 hours watching other videos just to understand this chemistry concept, I still was not able to completely get it. You just made me understand the whole concept in less than 40 minutes. Thank you very much, now I can assertively jump on my quizzes.
OMG WHY DIDN'T I FIND THIS EARLIER!! SUCH A LIFE SAVER !! THANK YOU
I've been teaching chemistry for 4 years and i'd like to apply this method in my school. thank you so much
I LOVED the in depth explanation of each example!! THANK YOU!!!
Literally, i am just speechless. you had just given me a long lasting concept.
Thank you Melissa! Your explanations are so helpful and your 'can-do' attitude as well!
This was very helpful, I really prefer these longer videos that go through so many examples!

I wish there was someone like this for accounting these videos make things do clear l
I just watched this whole thing, literally. Know nothing about it, but I am interested.
I cannot thank you enough for this video! Unfortunately my chemistry class is online this semester and it's harder to understand explanations via email and zoom isn't an option due to my schedule. I was having so much trouble with this
You are a lifesaver; keep uploading more videos.....This video helped me a lot and cleared most of my doubts.

Hi Melissa! First off thank you for all your content - It's helping me a ton in my 8week summer session of college gen chem. I have a question about the final two structures. When I drew my structure for ClO4-, I tended to want to draw my Cl atom with double bonds for 3 out of 4 of the Oxygen atoms and a single bond to the 4th Oxygen atom. The single electron hanging around by itself on the outside of Oxygen kind of made sense in my mind because the whole molecule in the end was supposed to be negatively charged. My main focus was making sure that the central Cl atom had 7 electrons attached to it. I'm not understanding how its okay to leave a central Cl with only 4 electrons when it's supposed to have 7. I hope that wasn't too confusing of an explanation. Is it like a law of physics no-no to have a single electron hanging out by itself on an exterior element or something? Thanks for any insight!
For the CO2 example, why does oxygen begin with 7 valance electrons instead of 6? There are 3 lone pairs but still a bond between an extra valance electron with the carbon. 🤔

For the lewis structure of IOF5, why is I in the center of the lewis structure, when O is more electronegative than I? O is much closer to F than I on the periodic table. Thank you,
how do you know how many central atoms to use? will there ever be a case where there are more than two atoms in the center? THANK YOU for these videos they are saving me right now!!
hi melissa do you have the instructional notes where you check things off for these?

Hi, does it matter (in CH3COH) which lone pair electrons are moved to form teh double bond?
Really helpful video! Quick question: for the ClO4- ion, shouldn't there be 3 double bonds between the Cl and O, since that would be the most appropriate in terms of formal charges?
Thank you very much mam💗
Melissa madam I have a doubt. In paper, If they ask to find the dipole moment, do I need to find shape of the molecule before?
Hi prof...i'd to ask why when we calculate formula charge for clo4- we get 4- indstead

Thanks so much queen! You rock.

Hello Ms. Melissa! I'm in a journey of watching all of your Chemistry videos. I have a question for this 20:00 CH3COH lewis structure. I drew Oxygen in the structure by making a bond with the last Hydrogen. So the Oxygen is in between the second Carbon atom and the last Hydrogen atom, so it's kinda look like this; C-O-H. I drew an electron lone pair under the second Carbon and two lone pairs up and under the Oxygen. So in my Lewis structure, the Oxygen atom has bonded with the second Carbon atom and the last Hydrogen atom. Could you explain me why this version is incorrect and the version in the video is correct please?
But how does a single bonded oxygen atom has 6electrons, as 0 has only 6 electrons in its valence shell.. please help mam
I have a chem final tomorrow... you saved my grade
