Question

2. Represent the formation of anions by the following non-metals using electron dot structures (a)N (b) P (c) Br (d) H​

Answer 1

Answer:

I thik it's P okay byeeeeeee

Answer 2

Lewis structure is also known as electron dot structure it is the representation of the valence shell electron in molecules.

Explanation:

1)  The atomic number of nitrogen is 7

the electronic configuration of a nitrogen atom [He] 2$s^{2}$, 2$p^{3}$

The valence electrons present are 5

so, the Nobel gas configuration will be obtained by gaining 3 more electrons

$N^{3-}$

2) The atomic number of Phosphorus is 15

the electronic configuration of a phosphorus atom is [Ne] 3$s^{2}$, 3$p^{3}$

so, the Nobel gas configuration will be obtained by gaining 3 more electrons

$P^{3-}$

3) The atomic number of bromine is 35

the electronic configuration of a bromine atom is [Ar]  4$s^{2}$, 3$d^{10}$,4$p^{5}$

so, the Nobel gas electronic configuration will be obtained by gaining 1 electron

$Br^{-}$

4) The atomic number of hydrogen is 1

the electronic configuration of a hydrogen atom is $1s^{2}$

so, the Nobel gas electronic configuration will be obtained by gaining  1 electron

$H^{-}$
