- The A represents the central atomand always has an implied subscript one.
- The X represents the number of sigma bonds between the central atoms and outside atoms. Multiple covalent bonds (double, triple, etc) count as one X.
- The E represents the number of lone electron pairs surrounding the central atom.
The sum of X and E, known as the steric number, is also associated with the total number of hybridized orbitals used by valence bond theory.
