  • great video. really helped me grasp it. but how would you draw the dot structure for an element such as tin, which has an atomic number of 50?

  • @mtn2park You wouldn't be drawing such an atom as an electron dot diagram. If so, you would need to draw only the valence electrons, which can range from typically 1-8 valence electrons.

  • dude thank you so much! i have watched all of these videos including the naming polyatomics and such. i have my final tomoroow and i just don't get it because my teacher is horrible. however your explanations have helped me so much and i know i will do amazing on my final tomorrow!!!!!!! thank you so much!!!!!!

  • @mbsurfrider I'm glad I was able to help you. I wish you best of luck on your final. Let me know how you do.

  • Thank u so much I learned a lot... my science teacher can't teach for her life.

  • Thanks that helped me a lot!

  • THANK YOU!!! I know i will do good in my final tomorrow!!

  • @Papapodcasts thanks! i realized that the atomic number is irrelevant, since the dots symbolize the number of valence electrons.
