If you are asked to write the Lewis Structure of Iron (Fe) you'll first need to find the number of valance electrons for Iron. One of the challenges in writing Lewis Structures for Fe is that Iron normally doesn't use all of it's valence electrons when if forms chemical bonds. So even though we can write the structure, it isn't particularly useful. • That said, to find the valence electrons for Iron we write the condensed electron configuration and then count the electrons outside of the Nobel Gas core. These will be the valance electrons. Once we have the valance electrons we can place them around the elements symbol Fe. • Iron has eight valence electrons using this technique. Note that some of the electrons are in a d orbital. Therefore we don't consider Iron to be a Nobel Gas even though it has eight valence electrons. • For help writing the electron configuration for Iron and finding the valence electrons, watch: • Valence Electrons for Iron: • Valence Electrons for Fe (Iron) • Electron Configuration for Iron: • Electron Configuration for Fe, Fe2+, ... • --- Lewis Resources ---- • • Lewis Structures for Ionic Compounds: • How to Draw Lewis Dot Structures for ... • • Lewis Structures for Covalent Compounds: • How to Draw Lewis Structures: Five Ea... • • Counting Valence Electrons: • Finding the Number of Valence Electro... • • Calculating Formal Charge: • Formal Charges: Calculating Formal Ch... • • Exceptions to the Octet Rule: • Exceptions to the Octet Rule • More chemistry help at https://www.Breslyn.org.
