draw lewis structuresfor sodium chloride, water, and hydrochloric acid. Identify the bond type in each structure. Is the octet rule satisifed for each atom or ion?

sodium chloride:
Na+ (no dots because sodium lost an electron)
Cl- (8 dots because chloine gained an electron)
The octet rule is satisfied, ionic bond
water:
H**O**H (the oxygen actually has 8 dots counting the ones shared with the hydrogen)
oxygen has octet, hydrogens do not since they can have at most 2 electrons. covalent bonds
hydrochloric acid
H**Cl (the chlorine has 8 dots counting the ones shared with the hydrogen)
chlorine has octet, hydrogen does not since it can have at most 2 electrons covalent bond

Sodium Chloride is NaCl
Lewis structure:
Na-Cl, ionic bond, single bond, octet rule satisfied for both ions
Water is H20
Lewis structure:
H-O-H, covalent bonds, single bonds, octet rule satisfied for both atoms because H only needs a single electron to fill its first valence shell.
Hydrocloric Acid is HCl
Lewis Structure:
H-Cl, ionic bond, single bond, octet rule satisifed for both
