Chapter 11, Problem 15RQ

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The Lewis structure of $\text{Cs,}\text{Ba,}\text{Tl,}\text{Pb,}\text{Po,}\text{At}\text{and}\text{Rn}$ has to be drawn and these structures has to be correlated with their groups.

Concept Introduction:

Lewis structure:

  The representation of valence shell electrons around the atom is known as Lewis structure or Lewis dot structure.  Electrons are represented as a dot in Lewis structures, a single dot represents unpaired electron and paired of dots represents paired electrons.
