when an atom loses or gains electrons the electron dot symbol for the resulting ion will be different than that of the original atom. if ar were to lose 2 electrons what would be the new electron dot symbol of the ar2 ion?

Respuesta :

The dot structure of Ar will have 6 electron in their valence shell.

Lewis dot structures, also known as electron dot structures, are schematics that show the interatomic chemical bonds in a molecule. Additionally, they show how many lone pairs there are overall in each of the atoms that make up the molecule. Common names for Lewis dot structures include electron dot structures and Lewis structures. Lewis described an acid as an electron pair acceptor, while a base is an electron pair giver.

The electronic structures of the elements, including the electron pairings, are reflected in the Lewis dot structures. Lewis structures can be viewed as "electron bookkeeping" and are a helpful way to condense some bonding-related information. Each dot in a Lewis dot structure corresponds to an electron. A bond is denoted by two dots placed between the atoms in chemical symbols.

Hence, Ar dot structure will be different from neutral Ar atom.
