The Lewis dot diagram for Iron is the letters FE with seven dots around it, with no more than 2 dots on each side. Iron is not a part of the halogen family.
Good try! However, the electron configuration of Fe is [Ar]4s23d6. Unlike the representative elements, the lower level 3d electrons can act as valence electrons. The total number of "valence" electrons is equal to eight so Fe would have eight dots around it. Also, iron is NOT part of the halogen family which includes fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine. It is classified rather as a transition metal.
It would be the atomic symbol for silver (Ag) with however many dots around it as the number of valence electrons. The dots are placed with a maximum of two on each side bringing the highest total to eight, reserved for the noble gases. The Lewis dot diagram for silver would be .Ag (the dot can go on any side; it does not make a difference.)
It is Si with four dots. One above Si one below and one to the left and one to the right. If you don't get what I mean look here. http://dl.clackamas.edu/ch104-07/atomic.htm

Silicon has 4 valence electrons, and hydrogen each has 1 valence electron. Silicon is in the center, with each of the four hydrogens around it. Silicon bonds once with each hydrogen. H | H-Si-H | H

Yes, in a Lewis diagram, the valence electrons are shown by dots around them.

The electrons in the outermost shell of an atom is known as the valence electrons. These valence electrons determine the reactivity of the atom.
