For H2SO4 we have a total of 32 valence electrons. Put a pair between the atoms. We're forming chemical bonds here. We've used 8, 10, 12, and then around the outside to fill the octets on the Oxygens, 14, and 32.So this looks like a pretty good Lewis structure for H2SO4. In the H 2 SO 4 Lewis structure Sulfur is least electron electronegative atom and goes in the center of the Lewis structure. 2  When we have an H (or H2) in front of a polyatomic molecule (like CO 3, SO 4, NO 2, etc.) we know that it's an acid.
A: A single molecule of water consists of three atoms. H2O is built from a single atom of oxygen that is single-bonded with two atoms of hydrogen. Oxygen is generally eager to bind with hydrogen. These atoms bond strongly with each other, and the resulting water molecule is unusually stable and resistant to decomposition. Within each water molecule, oxygen is bound to hydrogen by a covalent bond consisting of two shared electrons per hydrogen atom. Oxygen's other, unshared, electrons tend to push against the hydrogen atoms and force them toward one side of the oxygen, resulting in an asymmetrical electromagnetic polarity that permits weaker hydrogen bonds between molecules.
