Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Lewis symbols for the given ions or atoms have to be written.
Concept introduction:
Electronic configuration: The every atom has electron, proton and neutron
The electrons arranged in lower energy level to higher level
The electron is filled in orbital lower energy is filled first then go for higher energy levels.
First the all sub shell orbital’s filled in single electron after that paired.
Lewis structure otherwise known as Lewis dot diagrams or electron dot structures that show the bond between atoms and lone pairs of electrons that are present in the molecule. Lewis structure represents each atom and their position in structure using the chemical symbol. Excess electrons forms the lone pair are given by pair of dots, and are located next to the atom.
