Key Stage 4

Meaning

A dot and cross diagram is a diagram used to show how electrons from the outer shells of atoms are shared or transferred in a chemical bond.

About Dot and Cross Diagrams

Dot and cross diagrams can be used to represent covalent bonds and ionic bonds.

Examples

Covalent Bonds
OxygenDotandCrossDiagram.png
NitrogenDotandCrossDiagram.png
CarbonDioxideDotandCrossDiagram.png
The two Oxygen atoms each share two of their electrons with one another. The two Nitrogen atoms each share three of their electrons with one another. Each Oxygen shares two of its electrons with the Carbon atom while the Carbon atom shares two electrons with each Oxygen atom.
Ionic Bonds
LithiumFluorideDotandCrossDiagram.png
MagnesiumOxideDotandCrossDiagram.png
BerylliumFluorideDotandCrossDiagram.png
The Lithium atom donates an electron from its outer shell to the outer shell of the Fluorine atom. The Magnesium atom donates two electrons from its outer shell to the outer shell of the Oxygen atom. The Beryllium atom donates two electrons from its outer shell to the outer shells of each Fluorine atom.
