For each of the following molecules draw the Lewis structure on a separate sheet of paper. MAKE SURE TO FOLLOW THE RULES FROM CLASS (ie do not break the octet rule unless necessary to connect all the atoms). Then based on your structure indicate: the total number of valence electrons.

the electronic and molecular shapes (choose from: linear, trigonal planar, bent, tetrahedral, trigonal pyramidal, trigonal bipyramidal, seesaw, T-shaped, octahedral, square pyramidal, or square planar).

whether or not the molecule is polar (Y/N).

Note: The central atom is the first atom listed, except for HCN, H2CO, and OCN-, where carbon is the central atom (underlined).
