What is a Lewis Dot Structure?

Back

A Lewis Dot Structure is a diagram that represents the valence electrons of an atom as dots around the element's symbol, showing how they are arranged in bonds and lone pairs.

Front

What is the octet rule in relation to Lewis Dot Structures?

Back

The octet rule states that atoms tend to bond in such a way that they have eight electrons in their valence shell, achieving a stable electron configuration.

Front

What are lone pairs in a Lewis Dot Structure?

Back

Lone pairs are pairs of valence electrons that are not involved in bonding and are located on the atom.
