Lewis Dot Diagram Practice

Lewis Dot Diagram Practice

Read each question carefully and provide your answer in the space provided. For Lewis Dot Diagrams, ensure all valence electrons are shown and the octet rule is satisfied where applicable.

Draw the Lewis Dot Diagram for the following atoms:

1. Carbon (C)

2. Oxygen (O)

3. Sodium (Na)

Draw the Lewis Dot Diagram for the following molecules:

1. Water (H₂O)

2. Carbon Dioxide (CO₂)

3. Ammonia (NH₃)

1. How many valence electrons does Nitrogen (N) have?

2. Which of the following elements typically forms a double bond in a Lewis Dot Diagram to satisfy the octet rule?

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.

2. In a Lewis Dot Diagram, lone pairs of electrons are typically shown on the central atom.
