Electron in highest occupied energy level of an elements atoms
Electron Dot Structure
Diagram that shows valence electron as dots
Octet Rule
In a chemical reaction atoms gain or lose electrons to acquire the electron structure of a noble gas

Law of Definite Proportions
In different samples of a given chemical compound, the masses of the elements are always in the same proportions
Law of Multiple Proportions
Whenever the same two elements form more than one compound, the different masses of one element that combine with the same mass of the other element are in the ratio of small whole numbers
