Chapter 9, Problem 9.1QP
What is a Lewis dot symbol? To what
Expert Solution & Answer
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The term Lewis dot symbol has to be described. The type of elements that Lewis dot symbol mainly applies has to be identified.
Explanation of Solution
Lewis dot symbol represents the number of valence electrons of an atom or constituent atoms bonded in a molecule. Each dot corresponds to one electron.
Lewis dot symbol mainly applies to representative elements. Representative elements are the elements that belong to group IA & IIA on the left side of the periodic table and also the elements of last six groups of the periodic table.
