Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The Lewis dot structure of element He (2) needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction: The group number of main-group elements is equal to the number of valence electrons present in that element. The Lewis dot structure is drawn using the symbol of an atom and number of valence electrons present in it.
(b)
Interpretation: The Lewis dot structure of element Na (11) needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction: The group number of main-group elements is equal to the number of valence electrons present in that element. The Lewis dot structure is drawn using the symbol of an atom and number of valence electrons present in it.
(c)
Interpretation: The Lewis dot structure of element Cl (17) needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction: The group number of main-group elements is equal to the number of valence electrons present in that element. The Lewis dot structure is drawn using the symbol of an atom and number of valence electrons present in it.
(d)
Interpretation: The Lewis dot structure of element P (15) needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction:The group number of main-group elements is equal to the number of valence electrons present in that element. The Lewis dot structure is drawn using the symbol of an atom and number of valence electrons present in it.
(e)
Interpretation: The Lewis dot structure of element H (1) needs to be determined.
