Question

Draw an electron

Answer 1

Answer:

 . .

: Ne :

  . .

Explanation:

Let's take Neon as our example. In the Lewis dot structure, each dot corresponds to an electron in the valence shell of the atom. All atoms like to have a full valence shell. By the octet rule, this means that they need 8 electrons total to be electronically satisfied. Noble gases all have a full valence shell in their natural state. This is why they are inert, as they do not need extra electrons to be electronically satisfied.
