What information on the periodic table is used to complete electron dot diagrams? The number before the A at the top of a column
shows how many dots to draw in the diagram. The number before the B at the top of a column shows how many dots to draw in the diagram. The number at the left of each row shows the number of valence electrons that are in atoms of elements in that row. The number at the left of each row shows how many dots to draw above the symbol for elements in that row.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
Electron dot structures are structures in which electrons are represented by dots placed around a chemical symbol. Therefore, in a dot diagram only the symbol for the element and the electrons in its outermost energy level are shown.
The reason as to why valence electrons are the only ones used in dot diagram is because; they are the only ones involved in chemical reactions and bonding, to make it easier to decide what it could be bonded to and its characteristics. Also to make it easier identify its placement on periodic table.
For many solids dissolved in liquid water, the solubility increases with temperature.
The increase in kinetic energy that comes with higher temperatures allows the solvent molecules to more effectively break apart the solute molecules that are held together by intermolecular attractions.
