Answer 2

fllowing is following

Answer 3

Draw the bonds for each, making sure to follow the octet rule!

Answer 4

the octet rule is 8 dots? Not sure

Answer 5

Those little dots are electrons, e\(^-\)

Answer 6

Do you do that to all of them.

Answer 7

Yes, it means that each atom has 8 electrons. So, draw a bond

Answer 8

So like O2 will have 6? and 2 oxide with 6 ?

Answer 9

which makes 12?

Answer 10

drawing a bond between them, they went from six electrons each to now 7!

Answer 11

And, remember octet rule? They must have 8 e\(^-\). Meaning, what do you need? Well, that means you need another bond!

Answer 12

Therefore, O\(_2\) should look like this \(\sf \huge\color{red}{:ö=ö:}\)

Answer 13

Now, follow the same process with the other compounds, making sure that each element has 8 e\(^-\)

Answer 14

so then for N2 it would be like this
