Which of the following statements is false about drawing Lewis structures?

c. N, P, and As can sometimes share more than 8 e-

Explanation:

Lewis structures are diagrams that show the valence electrons of atoms within a molecule. Valence electrons play a major role while drawing Lewis structures as only valence electrons can be shared with another molecule to form a bond.

N, P, and As can not share more than 8 e- because they have less valence electrons in their outer shell. N has only one valence electron, P and As has only 5 valence electrons so they can not share more than their valence electrons.

Hence, the correct answer is "c. N, P, and As can sometimes share more than 8 e-".
