The Lewis structure of carbon tetrachloride CCl4 can be drawn as follows:1. First, count the total number of valence electrons. Carbon has 4 valence electrons and each chlorine atom has 7 valence electrons. Since there are 4 chlorine atoms, the total number of valence electrons is 4 + 4 7 = 4 + 28 = 32.2. Place the central atom carbon in the center and arrange the 4 chlorine atoms around it.3. Connect the central atom to each surrounding atom with a single bond. This will use up 8 valence electrons 4 single bonds 2 electrons per bond = 8 electrons .4. Distribute the remaining valence electrons 32 - 8 = 24 as lone pairs around the surrounding atoms chlorine to satisfy the octet rule. Each chlorine atom needs 6 more electrons to complete its octet, so each chlorine will have 3 lone pairs.The Lewis structure of CCl4 is: Cl | Cl - C - Cl | ClEach chlorine atom is single-bonded to the central carbon atom, and each chlorine atom has 3 lone pairs of electrons. The central carbon atom has no lone pairs and is surrounded by 4 single bonds.
