Chemistry Chemistry, how do i draw the lewis structures for these molecules?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on the challenges of drawing Lewis structures for specific molecules, including H5IO6, TeF6, IF7, SF4, and BrCl3. The user expresses difficulty in connecting atoms due to insufficient unpaired valence electrons. A resource link is provided to assist with understanding Lewis dot structures. Participants are encouraged to share strategies or tips for overcoming these common obstacles in molecular structure representation. The conversation highlights the importance of mastering Lewis structures in chemistry.

chemistry, how do i draw the lewis structures for these molecules?

i have tried all sorts of ways but keep on geting stuck with atoms which i can't connect, don't have enough non paired valence electrons to join em all up

H_{5}IO_{6}

TeF_{6}

IF_{7}

SF_{4}

BrCL_{3}

SORRY all the numbers are meant to be below the letters, (number of atoms) don't know why it came like that
 
This should help:

Thread 'Confusion regarding a chemical kinetics problem'
TL;DR Summary: cannot find out error in solution proposed. [![question with rate laws][1]][1] Now the rate law for the reaction (i.e reaction rate) can be written as: $$ R= k[N_2O_5] $$ my main question is, WHAT is this reaction equal to? what I mean here is, whether $$k[N_2O_5]= -d[N_2O_5]/dt$$ or is it $$k[N_2O_5]= -1/2 \frac{d}{dt} [N_2O_5] $$ ? The latter seems to be more apt, as the reaction rate must be -1/2 (disappearance rate of N2O5), which adheres to the stoichiometry of the...
