Title: Lewis structure.
Post by: Burn on November 23, 2019, 07:29:25 PM

How do I draw the Lewis structure for BH3?

If I draw it the B will be left with 3 pairs of electrons and that means that it isn’t stable. Is my drawing correct? There are no electrons left to share. Should I leave it as is?

This is how it turned out.
