G.N. Lewis
It represents the number of valence electrons in the atom.
They can also be called Lewis Dot Structures or Diagrams, named after a scientist names Gilbert Norton Lewis
to find the electron dot configuration of an element simply draw dots, symbolizing valance electrons, in a way that they are farthest from each other around the symbol of the element you are using.
valence electrons are the parts of an element that will attach to another element, but only if they reach a certain point. nothing else is a factor. the only other thing added is polarization, which affects how the shape of an atom will come out
I .. N:I .. I Sorry about the wierd spacing but there is a single bond on the top of the N and on the bottom

Lewis structure, electron dot diagram, electron dot structure...
1. An electron dot diagram can show you that the symbols for an element surrounded by dots. Each dot stands for one valence electron.
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 ' '
how do you draw an electron dot diagram for silicon

Yes, the dots in an electron dot diagram represent valence electrons.
Yes of course, electron dot diagrams can be drawn for all elements.
