What is the electron dot diagram for xenon?

The electron dot diagram for xenon would show the symbol Xe surrounded by eight dots, representing the eight valence electrons xenon has in its outer shell. This configuration allows xenon to fulfill the octet rule and be stable.


What elements have 5 electrons in their electron dot diagrams?

The elements that have 5 electrons in the dot diagram means that they have 5 valence electrons. These elements are found in group 5A. Elements include, nitrogen, phosphorus, arsenic, antimony, and bismuth.


What includes the symbol for an element surrounded by dots?

I had a science question that asked: An electron ______ is the chemical symbol for the element surrounded by as many dots as there are electrons in its outer energy level. That is pretty much the same as yours. I put dot diagram... Meaning electron dot diagram


What is the electron dot symbol for a potassium atom?

It is K with one dot so: K . The reasoning behind this is that you put the highest energy level on the dot notation. Electron Configuration notation for Potassium is: 1s2; 2s2, 2p6; 3s2, 3p6, 4s1. It is also in the third row, so that is why it moves up to the fourth energy level.


What is the difference between electron cloud and electron dot diagram?

Actually the terms orbitals and shells are NOT interchangeable. The electron shell refers to the distance away from the nucleus, with each addition of a shell adding more possibilities for electron placement. The orbitals are actually within each shell. This is proven through the fact that the shells and orbital capacities are not the same. For example, the first shell can hold 2 electrons, the second shell can hold 8, and the third shell can hold 18. The first orbital, s, can hold 2 electrons. The second orbital, p, can hold 6 electrons. The third oribital, d, can hold 10 electrons; therefore not being the same as the shells.

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 ' '
