Lewis Structures This is the first lesson in an Organic Chemistry full course in English. If you are looking to supplement your organic chemistry class or if you are looking for online organic chemistry videos for your online organic chemistry course, then Chad's Organic Chemistry Videos, an organic chemistry full course playlist on YouTube, are here to help. The course is broken up into 23 chapters with a total of 167 organic chemistry lessons covering every subject taught in a typical year of university organic chemistry (organic chemistry 1 and organic chemistry 2). Chad then dives into the first lesson on Lewis dot structures, specifically as relevant to organic chemistry. This lesson leaves Lewis diagrams made easy with Chad showing giving you the exact steps you need for how to draw Lewis dot structures. He begins by explaining the octet rule and the three common exceptions to the octet rule, and how atoms will often either transfer electrons (ionic bonding) or share electrons (covalent bonding) in order to have a filled octet. He finishes the lesson by showing several examples of how to draw Lewis structures for molecular compounds and more specifically common organic compounds students are likely to encounter early in the course. If you are looking for Lewis structures practice questions with solutions, you won't be disappointed.

Answer each question based on what was covered in the video lesson. No outside knowledge is required — all answers can be found in the video.
Show all work step by step. Problems increase in difficulty — start with valence electron counting and bond prediction, then move on to drawing and analyzing full Lewis structures.
These are challenging, exam-level questions that require multi-step reasoning, analysis, and evaluation. Go beyond recall — apply concepts to new scenarios, compare competing ideas, and justify your answers.
