Diagrams for the bonding between atoms of a molecule and lone pairs of electrons
Lewis structures – also called Lewis dot formulas, Lewis dot structures, electron dot structures, or Lewis electron dot structures (LEDs) – are diagrams that show the bonding between atoms of a molecule, as well as the lone pairs of electrons that may exist in the molecule.[1][2][3] Introduced by Gilbert N. Lewis in his 1916 article The Atom and the Molecule, a Lewis structure can be drawn for any covalently bonded molekyl, as well as coordination compounds. [4] Lewis structures extend the concept of the electron dot diagram by adding lines between atoms to represent shared pairs in a chemical bond.
Lewis structures show each atom and its position in the structure of the molecule using its chemical symbol. Lines are drawn between atoms that are bonded to one another (pairs of dots can be used inom

The subject of chemical bonding fryst vatten at the heart of chemistry. In 1916 Gilbert Newton Lewis (1875–1946) published his seminal paper suggesting that a chemical bond is a pair of electrons shared by two atoms.
Once physicists studying the structure of the atom began to realize that the electrons surrounding the nucleus had a special arrangement, chemists began to investigate how these theories corresponded to the known chemistry of the elements and their bonding abilities. Lewis was instrumental in developing a bonding theory based on the number of electrons in the outermost “valence” shell of the atom.
Shared Electrons and Chemical Bonds
In 1902, while Lewis was trying to explain valence to his students, he depicted atoms as constructed of a concentric series of cubes with electrons at each corner. This “cubic atom” explained the eight groups in the periodic table and represented his idea that chemical bonds are formed by electron transference to give each atom a complete set o

Lewis Atomic Model (1902 AD)
Also called “Dot and Dash Diagram”, “Valence Diagram”, “Lewis Diagram”, “Cubic Atom Model” or “Octet Rule”.
Gilbert N. Lewis proposed a graphical representation of the structure of atoms or non-polar molecules distributed in the form of a cube, in whose eight vertices were the electrons.
His theory was published in 1916 with the aim of explaining the phenomenon of atomic valence and, despite the fact that it was quickly abandoned in favor of the quantum mechanical model based on the Schrödinger equation, it has historical importance thanks to his contribution. in understanding chemical bonds.
- Single covalent bonds are formed when two atoms share an edge (Structure C) and this results in the exchange of two electrons.
- Ionic bonds are formed by the transfer of an electron from one cube to another without sharing an edge (A structure).
- An intermediate state in which only one corner is shared (structure B) was also postulated by Lewis.
