Answer:

The structures shown by dots and lines to give the exact number of electrons in the outer most shell is explained by Lewis Structures.

Explanation:

Lewis structures are those structures in which the diagram is shown using the electron representation. They are easy to understand as the diagram completely depicts where the electrons are shared and where they are transferred. The diagram also explains where there is a single bond and where there is a di covalent bond or tri covalent bond explaining where the single , double or triple electron pair is shared. The electrons are shown by dots or lines.

For example CCl₄ can be shown as follows

                  ..

               .. Cl..

  ..                               ..

..Cl..----------C----------..Cl..

                   ..

                .. Cl..

The picture shows that each chlorine has six electrons in its outer shell and then a pair of electron is shared with carbon forming a single covalent bond.

Similarly methane CH4 can also be shown.

The hydrogen has one electron and it shares an electron from carbon stabilising itself forming methane.

Only 11% of all the energy used in the US comes from a renewable source. Why is this a<br> problem?
mr Goodwill [35]
Fossil fuels and unnatural energy sources still dominate in the US, this influences many problems including global warming, climate change, and pollution. Burning fossil fuels is also a problem to human health. And unnatural resources won’t be there forever whereas, renewable sources could last a long time.
