In 1923. Lewis published a classic book (later reprinted by Dover Publications) titled Valence and the Structure of Atoms and Molecules. Here, in Lewis s characteristically lucid style, we find many of the basic principles of covalent bonding discussed in this chapter. Included are electron-dot structures, the octet rule, and the concept of electronegativity. Here too is the Lewis definition of acids and bases (Chapter 15). That same year, Lewis published with Merle Randall a text called Thermodynamics and the Free Energy of Chemical Substances. Today, a revised edition of that text is still used in graduate courses in chemistry. 

Covalent bonds form between atoms with similar electronegativities. In these reactions, electrons do not migrate from one atom to another as they do in ionic bonds they are shared by the atoms in the molecule. A good way to visualize this was proposed by Gilbert Lewis, a chemist at the University of California, Berkeley. His representations of molecular bonds are called Lewis dot structures. These structures use dots to denote the valence electrons of an element or molecule.

The products are determined first (from electron dot structures, if necessary) to be NaCl, MgO, and Li,S, respectively. These are placed to the right of the respective arrows, and the equations are then balanced. 

With the information given in Table 21-1, it is possible to write an electron dot structure for an organic molecule.
