AI Generated Solution

To draw the electron dot structure of a chlorine molecule (Cl₂), follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Valence Electrons**: Each chlorine atom has 7 valence electrons. Since a chlorine molecule consists of two chlorine atoms, the total number of valence electrons in Cl₂ is: \[ 7 \text{ (from first Cl)} + 7 \text{ (from second Cl)} = 14 \text{ valence electrons} ...
