  • Lewis Dot Structure
    A diagram showing valence electrons as dots around element symbols to visualize covalent bonding.
  • Valence Electrons
    The outermost electrons of an atom, crucial for forming chemical bonds and depicted in dot structures.
  • Covalent Bond
    A type of chemical link where atoms share pairs of electrons to achieve stability.
  • Noble Gas Configuration
    An electron arrangement resembling that of inert gases, associated with maximum stability.
  • Molecular Compound
    A substance formed when two or more elements connect through shared electron pairs.
  • Electron Pair
    Two electrons occupying the same orbital, often involved in forming bonds between atoms.
  • Structural Representation
    A visual model that displays how atoms are connected and how electrons are distributed.
  • Bond Structure
    A specific arrangement of atoms and electron pairs showing possible connections in a molecule.
  • Guideline
    A rule or principle followed to determine the most accurate arrangement of atoms and electrons.
  • Element Symbol
    A one- or two-letter abbreviation representing a chemical element in diagrams and formulas.
  • Electron Distribution
    The arrangement of electrons among the orbitals and atoms in a molecule.
  • Best Structure
    The most stable and accurate depiction of a molecule based on established rules.
