  1. Periodic Table Study Guide 8th Grade Science Ms. Dixon How to Draw Electron Dot Diagrams

  2. Electron Dot Diagrams Find your element on the periodic table. Determine the number of valence electrons. This is how many dots you will draw.

  3. Electron Dot Diagrams Find out which group (column) your element is in. This will tell you the number of valence electrons your element has. You will only draw the valence electrons.

  4. Groups: Review Group 18 = 8 valence electrons Except for He, it has 2 electrons Group 1 = 1 valence electron Group 2 = 2 valence electrons • Each column is called a “group” 3,4,5,6,7 • Each element in a group has the same number of electrons in their outer energy level • The electrons in the outer energy level are called “valence electrons”

  5. Electron Dot Diagrams C Write the element symbol. Carbon is in the 4th group, so it has 4 valence electrons. Starting at the top and going around an imaginary box, draw 4 electrons, or dots, clockwise around the element symbol.

  6. Electron Dot Diagrams C Check your work. Using your periodic table, check that Carbon is in the 4th group. You should have 4 total electrons, or dots, drawn in for Carbon.

  7. Electron Dot Diagrams C In your notes, try these elements on your own: • H • P • Ca • Ar • Cl • Al
