not the lewis structure

Oooooh, ok

I think I get it

2 K + Cl2 → 2 KCl

You're drawing the places that the molecule connects between each atom?

That's the equation itself.

I'm trying to show the equation itself in a drawn form.

Ok

and forgot since I just had winter break

Yeah, I go back to school tomorrow

I know this is super simple, just forgot

Shoot i can't remember how they connect... potassium gives the electron to chlorine to fill the shell, right?

Would it show the remaining elements? In the end of the equation?

Potassium + Chlorine forms potassium chloride

Just needs to be the equation

nothing too special

2 K + Cl2 → 2 KCl

2 groups of potassium chloride

2 groups of potassium

then Cl2

So you would draw 2 K and 2 Cl and then draw 2 KCl and a line between the two of them with the number of electrons being swapped

2Cl and Cl2 is the same sure, but it must reflect it being Cl2

Mmm

I could draw it rq and give an example

Yeah, please

brb then

I am a little confused

I'm heading into work, but I can check back in a little bit

well

I don't have much time

Not sure if this is what you mean or not?

Sorry it is sideways ;;

Idk if that's right

Probably not

I am not right either...

that might be closer

@Brendan C.

I feel like that is closer.

I think a combination of yours and kits where there is a potassium for each chlorine and then the chlorine are connected would be right.
