Question

1. What is the use of electron dot structure?
2. Contrast ionization energy from electron affinity.

Pls don't copy from google. ;(

Answer 1

Answer:

1 ) Lewis electron dot diagrams use dots to represent valence electrons around an atomic symbol. Lewis electron dot diagrams for ions have fewer (for cations) or more (for anions) dots than the corresponding atom.

2 ) Ionization energy is the energy required to remove an electron away from an atom, which can be written as IE. ... Electron affinity, on the other hand, is the energy released when an electron is added to the atom. On the periodic table, electron affinity usually decreases down a group, and increases across a period.
