1. Lewis Dot Diagrams show the arrangement of electrons around an atom.
2. The rule states that atoms tend to gain, lose, or share electrons to achieve a full outer shell of eight electrons.
3. A single bond in a Lewis Dot Diagram is represented by dots or a single line.
1. All atoms must always satisfy the octet rule in their Lewis Dot Diagrams.
True
False
2. In a Lewis Dot Diagram, lone pairs of electrons are typically shown on the central atom.
True
False
