Lewis Dot Structures ChemDoodle provides you with all the tools to build perfect figures of Lewis Dot Structures. Draw them yourself, or have ChemDoodle automatically create the Lewis Dot Structures for you! Lewis Dot Structure. Lewis dot structures reflect the electronic structures of the elements, including how the electrons are paired. Lewis structures are a useful way to summarize certain information about bonding and may be thought of as “electron bookkeeping”. In Lewis dot structures each dot represents an electron.

The sketcher controls are modeled from the ChemDoodle® desktop application (learn more about the desktop software here). Those familiar with the ChemDoodle desktop application will immediately be comfortable drawing structures in this web-based sketching component.

The most basic sketcher input is received from mouse events. All aspects of the ChemDoodle desktop application are present, from locking bond lengths and angles, to the optimize zone to fragment previews. More information about how to use the ChemDoodle family of sketchers can be found in the ChemDoodle user guide. Pritt Balagopal has also put together a nice tutorial on the Chemistry StackExchange.

In addition to mouse input, there are buttons and keyboard shortcuts that are described in the other tabs.

1. The Lewis structure indicates that each Cl atom has three pairs of electrons that are not used in bonding (called lone pairs) and one shared pair of electrons (written between the atoms). A dash (or line) is sometimes used to indicate a shared pair of electrons: A single shared pair of electrons is called a single bond.
2. Use information from step 4 and 5 to draw the lewis structure. Carbon goes in the centre.Make sure carbon and oxygen get 8 electrons to fulfil octet rule. Lewis dot structure of H 2 CO. Alternatively a dot method can be used to draw the lewis structure. Calculate the total valence electrons in the molecule. H:1x2=2 C:4 O:6.

The small grey dot that follows your cursor is an atom (carbon). All structures must begin with an atom. Click to place an atom. Hover and click on a placed atom to place a bond. You can make it so starting atoms are not required by clicking on the Require starting atom checkbox to the right of the sketcher.

There are two types of ChemDoodle Web Sketchers, the Full Sketcher and the Single Molecule Sketcher. You can choose either above in this demo. Based on the interface, you may be using one or the other or both. The Full Sketcher allows for the creation of multiple chemical structures, shapes and figures. The Single Molecule Sketcher provides a streamlined interface for drawing a single molecular structure.

If you are developer and would like to learn how to install this sketcher, please refer to the SketcherCanvas documentation.
