It indicates the number of valence electrons, and atoms must bond in certain ways to fulfill the Octet Rule. If the electronegativities of two elements are known, the type of bond that will form is also known (ionic, polar, nonpolar) and this information can be crossed with the dot diagram to tell in what ratio exactly the two elements will bond to form compounds.

∙ 8y ago1. An electron dot diagram can show you that the symbols for an element surrounded by dots. Each dot stands for one valence electron.

∙ 13y agoAn electron dot diagram tells you that as many dots there are surrounding the element, there are electrons in its outer energy level.

What information can you get from electron dot diagram?
1. An electron dot diagram can show you that the symbols for an element surrounded by dots. Each dot stands for one valence electron.
In an electron dot diagram of potassium There is one dot. In an electron dot diagram of silicon there are four dots. Which element would you expect to be more reactive?
silicon
What is a synonym for Lewis diagram?
Lewis structure, electron dot diagram, electron dot structure...
Does plutonium have a electron dot diagram?

What Represents The Electrons In The Outer Energy Of An Element?

What is a synonym for Lewis diagram?
Lewis structure, electron dot diagram, electron dot structure...
What is the system used to represent the valence electrons around the chemical symbol of an element?
The electrons in the outermost shell of an atom is known as the valence electrons. These valence electrons determine the reactivity of the atom.
Dot diagrams are used to represent?
A dot diagram (also called an Electron Dot Diagram, and a Lewis Structure) is a way to show the valence electrons that surround an element. See related link for a good lesson on how to make a dot diagram.
What Uses the symbol for an element and dots representing the number of electrons in the elements out energy level?
Electron Dot Diagram
In an electron dot diagram the symbol for an element is used to represent?
In a Lews dot structure, the elemental symbol is used to represent the molecule's nucleus. The electrons are then represented by the dots.
What are diagrams?
There are two types of diagrams one is the Lewis diagram the other is the Electron dot diagram. To make the electron dot diagram you put the electron symbol and put a dot on one of the sides for each period (you don't count the middle section.) . . :Ne: = Neon dot diagram ' '
