![]() ![]() It is an anion, it hasĪ negative one charge. And so the valence electronsįrom a neutral carbon and a neutral nitrogen-free atom would be a total of Nitrogen has one, two, three,įour, five valence electrons in its second shell, it's It's in the second period, so you have four valenceĮlectrons from carbon. You might already know that carbon has one, two, three, four valence electrons in that second shell, To help us there we can look at a periodic And the reason why weĭo that is to make sure that we're allocating all So we've already seen in many videos, the first step is to essentially count the total valence electrons This is the first time we're constructing a Lewis diagram for an ion. ![]() ![]() Video we're gonna try to get more practice constructing Lewis diagrams.
