Answer:

Valence electrons.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the electron dot structure is widely known for representing the valence electrons as dots placed around the chemical symbol and they are defined as the electrons configured at the outermost shell of the studied atom. Commonly, electrons are placed up to two on each side of the elemental symbol for a maximum of eight. For instance, sodium has one valence electron, sulfur has six valence electrons, helium has eight valence electrons and so on. Valence electrons are known to be dependent of the electron configuration.

Best regards.

When should a lab coat, safety goggles, and gloves be worn in the laboratory?
Sever21 [200]
I would say that you should wear a lab coat, safety goggles, and gloves when the teacher says so - not everything in a lab is dangerous, so there is no need to always wear these. But when the teacher says you should - then you should.

How does the Doppler effect related to the universal expanding?
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
The Doppler effect doesn't just apply to sound. It works with all types of waves, which includes light. Edwin Hubble used the Doppler effect to determine that the universe is expanding. Hubble found that the light from distant galaxies was shifted toward lower frequencies, to the red end of the spectrum. This is known as a red Doppler shift, or a red-shift. If the galaxies were moving toward Hubble, the light would have been blue-shifted.
