After drawing a Lewis structure, one should
a. determine the number of each type of atom in the molecule.
b. add unshared pairs of electrons around nonmetal atoms.
c. determine the total number of valence electrons in each atom.
d. determine the electronegativity of each atom.
Dear student,
After drawing a lewis structure one should determine the electronegativity of each atom. Atoms with more electronegativity are more tends towards sharing of electrons rather donating of the electron, so when a bond is formed by sharing of electron this will also help us to understand the electronegativity of each atom also.
Hence, the correct option is (d).
