∙ 8y agoBefore we begin, the formula for water is H2O. There are two hydrogen atoms, each containing 1 electron, and the one oxygen atom has six electrons. So there are eight electrons in all.
When drawing diagrams, hydrogen always goes on the outside. So you would put down an O with an H on each side. Now each hydrogen only needs 2 valence electrons, so you would draw 2 dots on each side of the O, between it and the H. So you have 4 left over, so put two dots on the top, and two on the bottom. So that is the Lewis dot structure.

∙ 14y agoThe Lewis-Dot model for water is:
.
H-O-H
'
The two dots over and under O are electrons and
the lines on the left and right of O are single bonds.

What is the electron dot diagram for xenon?
The electron dot, or Lewis dot diagram for xenon is the symbol Xe surrounded by four pairs of dots, representing eight valence electrons. Refer to the related link for an illustration.
How many electron must be shown for the lewi dot structure of formaldehyde?
The answer is 12. If you draw the lewis dot structure for formaldehyde, you have to remember to draw the non-bonding pairs on the oxygen atom, and when you count all the electrons, remember that the lines used to represent bonds are counted as 2.
What are the major models on the structure of the atom?
There are many, but here are the main ones: 1) Dalton's Billiard Ball Model 2) Thompson's Plum Pudding Model 3) Lewis's Cubical Atom Model 4) Rutherford's Planetary Model 5) Bohr's Model 6) Schrodinger's Electron Cloud Model
What is the analog for charge in the water model for electricity?
The "water model" for electricity is very useful, hang on to it in the back of your mind; it will serve you well. Charge is the reservoir in this model.
How do you get the MW2 red dot sight in MW3?
The red dot sight from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 was only available during the builds of MW3 and was never actually released for the game. For unknown reasons the red dot sight from MW2 was cut and they used a similar model from the original Modern Warfare but with changes. But an AK-47 with the MW2 red dot sight can be found in MW3 in the spec ops mission "Kill Switch".
What is a Lewis Dot Model?
The Lewis dot model is a diagram that shows the bonding between atoms with dots or dashes. It was invented in 1916 by Gilbert N. Lewis.
Who invented the Dot Lewis Method?
Dot Lewis
What is the Lewis structures of H2O?
See the image of the Lewis dot structure of water in the "sources and related links" section below.
What is the Lewis dot structure for copper?
The Lewis dot structure is a diagram to show the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and pairs of electrons that may exist. The Lewis dot structure for chromium is Cr with two dots on top and bottom, and four dots on both sides.

What is a synonym for Lewis diagram?

What is a Lewis Structure?
A Lewis structure is a model that uses electron-dot structures to show how electrons are arranged in molecules. Pairs of dots or lines represent bonding pairs this is a CO32− model
What model shows how electrons in the outer energy level bondwhen elements combine and form compounds?
Lewis dot structure
Who created the dot diagrams?
Louis Dot created the Dot Diagram.
Why are electron dot structures sometimes called Lewis dots or Lewis structures?
They are called Lewis Dot Diagrams because of the man who came up with the idea, Lewis Gilbert
Why are resonance structures used to model certain molecules?
Because some covalent compounds have more then one valid Lewis dot structure
Does CaCO3 have a Lewis structure?
No, not exactly. It is an ionic compound so it would not have a Lewis dot structure. However, the carbonate anion, CO3^2- does have a Lewis dot structure.
