### Step-by-Step Solution #### (i) Write the electron-dot structures for sodium, oxygen, and magnesium. 1. **Sodium (Na)**: - Sodium has an atomic number of 11, which means it has 11 electrons. The electronic configuration is 2, 8, 1. - The valence shell (outermost shell) has 1 electron. - **Electron-dot structure**: Na· (one dot representing the single valence electron). ...
