A method of describing how many electrons are in the highest energy level in an electron. It is done by writing an element's symbol (i.e. for Hydrogen, H; and for Neon, Ne) and then placing dots around the symbol in a counter-clockwise manner. The maximum dots there can ever be is 8 (there are theorems that prove it, I believe the Aufbau Principle is the one). Their are several teachings in which the order the dots should be drawn. However, there is a consensus that up to two dots may be placed on any side of the symbol (2 on the right, 2 on top, 2 on the left, and 2 on bottom).
The dots are used to represent the outermost "s" and "p" electrons only. The number of "s" and "p" electrons used (valence electrons) is equal to the group number in which the element is found. Only the representative have elements have '"s" and "p" subshells. Example; Write the dot notation for the element Calcium. 1. Since Calcium (Ca) is located in Group 2 on the Periodic Table, it has 2 valence electrons. Therefore, it will only contain two dots. Ca:
The dot diagram for Neon is made up of two shells with the first shell having two 'dots' and the second having eight. This because the atomic number is ten. How to draw it: Have one dot in the middle and draw two circles around it. On the circle closest to the middle have two dots on it. Have eight on the outside circle.
Neon:
Its electronic configuration :2,8

1s2 2s2 2p6, or [He] 2s2 2p6, or just [Ne] since the configurations for noble gases are so trivial you're just supposed to know them.
Neon has 10 electrons. Its noble gas notation is [He] 2s2 2p6

The electron configuration of aluminum is [Ne]3s23p1.
The Electronic Configuration for Neon is as follows: 1s^2, 2s^2, 2p^6
It is K with one dot so: K . The reasoning behind this is that you put the highest energy level on the dot notation. Electron Configuration notation for Potassium is: 1s2; 2s2, 2p6; 3s2, 3p6, 4s1. It is also in the third row, so that is why it moves up to the fourth energy level.
Definition: A noble gas core is an abbreviation in an atom's electron configuration where the previous noble gas's electron configuration is replaced with the noble gas's element symbol in brackets. ... This is the noble gas core notation of sodium.
The electron configuration of neon is [He]2s2.2p6.
Sodium would most like be the element with one more electron over neon.
what does chlorine have t do to achieve the same electron arrangement as neon
2, 8 is the electron configuration
Yes. Helium, Xenon, and Neon have stable electron numbers (octette rule).
Na+ and neon are isoelectronic.
[He]2s22p6
It has the same electron configuration as in a neon atom.
.. :Ne: ``
Na+ ion and neon are isoelectronic.
Na+ and neon are isoelectronic.
Mg 2+ Has the same electron configuration as neon. Two electrons lost to do this.
