To create the Lewis structure we need to take into account the octet rule: atoms tend to gain, lose or share electrons to complete their valence shell with 8 electrons.
C belongs to Group 4A in the periodic table so it has 4 valence electrons. It needs to share 4 pairs of electrons to complete the octet.
F belongs to Group 7A in the periodic table so it has 7 valence electrons. Each F needs to share 1 pair of electrons to complete the octet.
As a consequence, in CF₄, C will form a single bond with each F and all the octets will be complete.

The Curies discovered radium
The mass of nitrogen gas that participated in the chemical reaction is 1.54g
HOW TO CALCULATE MASS OF AN ELEMENT:
- Mass of a substance can be calculated by multiplying the number of moles in mol of the substance by its molecular mass in g/mol. That is;
- mass (M) = molar mass (MM) × number of moles (n)
According to this question, a chemist determines by measurements that 0.0550 moles of nitrogen gas (N2) participate in a chemical reaction.
- The molecular mass of nitrogen gas (N2) = 14.01(2)
= 28.02g/mol
Hence, the mass of the nitrogen gas that participated in the chemical reaction is calculated as follows:
- Mass (g) = 0.0550 mol × 28.02 g/mol
Therefore, the mass of nitrogen gas that participated in the chemical reaction is 1.54g
