This man supervised an experiment in which dyed ether-pentane-alcohol was frozen in liquid nitrogen, leading him to theorize that phosphorescence could be caused by electrons in a triplet state. ECW theory describes a set of compounds named for this man, which are also at the core of the HSAB, or hard-soft, formulation. This man’s theory of the “cubical atom” was quickly discredited. He developed a theory of acids and bases that involves the transfer of an electron pair. For 10 points, what American scientist names “dot structures” that depict atoms and lone pairs of electrons?
