Look at each Lewis Dot Diagram for the following elements. How many electrons are needed to fill the outer shell?

Look at each Lewis Dot Diagram for the following elements How many electrons are needed to fill the outer shell class=

Respuesta :

1. 4 more electrons
2. 1 more electron
3. 3 more electrons

The goal is to have 8 electrons in the outer shell of each atom.

The number of electrons are needed to fill the outer shell of the given figures are 4,1 & 3 respectively.

What is Lewis dot structure?

Lewis dot structure shows the boding within the molecule by showing the number of electrons and lone pairs present in each atoms present in that molecule.

As we know that bonding in any molecule takes place to complete the octet configuration of outer most shell and get stability.

  • In the figure (1), 4 electrons are shown in the outer shell then we need 4 electrons to complete the octet.
  • In the figure (2), 7 electrons are shown in the outer shell then we need 1 electron to complete the outer most shell to complete the octet.
  • In the figure (3), 5 electrons are shown in the outer shell then we need 3 electrons to complete the outer most shell to complete the octet configuration.

Hence required no. of electrons are 4,1 & 3 respectively.
