Lewis structure of butane

This is the C4H10 Lewis structure: Butane. For Butane, we have a total of 26 valence electrons. Whenever we see the ending, "ane", we know that we're going to have Carbons and Hydrogens single bonded. That makes it a little bit easier to draw the C4H10 Lewis structure. We'll put four Carbons in a row and then we'll put Hydrogens around them. Because each Carbon needs to have four single bonds--each bond having two valence electrons, that'll give it an octet--we'll have three Hydrogens on the end Carbons and two on the center, like this. There are the three on the ends, and then we'll put two Hydrogens on the central Carbons. Next we'll place a single bond between each of the atoms to show that a pair of electrons is being shared.

So we've used all 26 valence electrons for the C4H10 Lewis structure, and we can see that each Carbon has four single bonds. Since each single bond has two valence electrons, that means that each Carbon has an octet. Each Hydrogen has a single bond, so it has two valence electrons. That means that it has a full outer shell as well. So we've used all the valence electrons that we had for C4H10 and everything has an octet..','.

when—without warning—something provokes your anger, you may struggle not to succumb to it. since what typically makes you mad is feeling powerless in the face of what seems unfair, your anger is mostly an attempt at a “quick fix” to right the balance. it’s as though you’re raising a fist in protest, proclaiming that you’re not going to capitulate to such injustice.

there are, however, a multitude of problems related to this immediate, push-back reaction of anger. and probably the key one is that almost never does it resolve the issue that gave rise to it. such reactive anger is probably best understood as self-defeating. as david burns, the author of the seminal self- book feeling good, observes: if realistically, acting on your anger is to make any sense, it needs to meet two criteria—which, in almost every case, is frankly impossible. that is, your anger must:

be directed toward a person who has intentionally (and needlessly) behaved in a hurtful way toward you; and

be beneficial or advantageous to you (i.e., assist you in achieving a desired goal).

i think you’ll agree that only rarely can you claim that your anger is both warranted and , whether to yourself or the relationship.

so let me offer you a two-step alternative to abandoning your better judgment and giving in to the temptation of anger—one that should neutralize your anger in seconds. or, when you’re really angry, in minutes.

but keep in mind that you must really want to execute these steps, be sufficiently motivated to perform them. which means overcoming more unconscious resistance than you might ever have imagined. because there are many immediate “advantages” of anger that can interfere with your resolve, i’ll suggest a few of them that might interfere with your employing this powerful method to rid yourself of counter-productive anger.
