A step-by-step explanation of how to draw the Cl3-Lewis Structure. • • For the Cl3-Lewis structure use the periodic table to find the total number of valence electrons for the Cl3-molecule. Once we know how many valence electrons there are in Cl3-we can distribute them around the central atom with the goal of filling the outer shells of each atom. • In the Lewis structure of Cl3-there are a total of 22 valence electrons. • Note that Cl3-can have an Expanded Octet and have more than eight valence electrons. Because of this there may be several possible Lewis Structures. To arrive at the most favorable Lewis Structure we need to consider formal charges.
