plz......mark mark me as brainliest
As an example, an oxygen atom has six electrons in its outer shell. ... When oxygen bonds to two hydrogen atoms to form water, each hydrbogen atom has one dot for its lone electron. The electron dot structure for water shows the single electrons for oxygen sharing space with the single electrons from hydrogen.
Lewis symbols (also known as Lewis dot diagrams or electron dot diagrams) are diagrams that represent the valence electrons of an atom. Lewis structures (also known as Lewis dot structures or electron dot structures) are diagrams that represent the valence electrons of atoms within a molecule.
for example:
Oxygen is in group 16/VIA, so it has six valence electrons. Draw the symbol for oxygen. Then place one dot at each side of the symbol. There are now four unpaired electrons around the oxygen symbol.
