Description

Introduce Lewis structures for covalent compounds in this fun, hands-on chemistry lab activity! Your students will illustrate how lone electrons pair in multiple bonds using cereal and pretzel sticks.

This lab is also part of my Full Chemistry Curriculum.

Included in this resource:

-Teacher instructions & materials list (see preview for necessary materials)

-Review of ionic and covalent compounds with Lewis structure examples

-Student instructions for building models

-Answer sheet for writing finished diagrams

-Answer keys

________________________________________________________________________

*This activity provides a quick introduction to Lewis structures for molecular compounds, but if you’d like more explanation in the form of presentations, guided notes, and review pages, you may want to purchase the Unit 5- Bonding unit instead. It includes this activity, as well.

Topics: ionic compounds, molecular (covalent) compounds, valence electrons, electron pairs, covalent bonding, multiple bonds
