1. An electron dot diagram can show you that the symbols for an element surrounded by dots. Each dot stands for one valence electron.
Yes of course, electron dot diagrams can be drawn for all elements.

how do you draw an electron dot diagram for silicon
1. An electron dot diagram can show you that the symbols for an element surrounded by dots. Each dot stands for one valence electron.
Lewis electron dot representation is a method to help visualise the formation of compounds by representative elements. Sometimes the "Octet rule" is referred to as many elements (not hydrogen) have a tendency to form a stable electron configuration if they have eight electrons in the outer "shell" (Bohr model).The electron dot representation helps in visualisingthe sharing of electrons between atoms;the tendency to have a complete outer "shell";the number of valence electrons of a representative element;the idea of electrons pairing into orbitals;the formation of multiple bonds when more than one electron is shared;the idea of non-bonding pairs of valence electrons (which is used for shape of molecules and the formation of some polyatomic ions eg hydronium ion, H3O+) Non-bonding pairs can also be used to explain the formation of oxides and chlorides of sulfur with the concept of relative electronegativity of the elements.
Yes of course, electron dot diagrams can be drawn for all elements.
Electron dot formula tells the number of valence electrons

The electron-dot structure of sodium atom is 'Na-dot' or 'Na.' One dot is one valence electron.

Electron affinity is related to the formation of anions; electronegativity is related to the formation of cations.
