i dont understand the lewis dot structure theory, i looked for help, but i cant find any. so if you can help me, answer this question please.
What are the lewis dot structures for Silicon, Sodium, Beryllium, Oxygen, Chlorine, boron, Lithium, Neon, Helium, Carbon, Magnesium, and Hydrogen
i know its a lot, but please i need the help. Thanks! =) (link)

what you do for a lewis dot structure is you have to make the outer energy level full. so say it has 5 valence electrons, you would make its symbol lets say its Al (idk if it has 5 valence electrons) but to make it full, you need 3 electrons so you make three dots around the letters Al . you will put one on top one on the side and one on the bottom, if it needed more you wud keep going around the circle.
,x hope thats clear enough! :]
