Helpful tools in thinking about bonding.
Pictorial representation of the valence electron configuration around an atom. We will only consider s and p block elements (main group) and consequently only be concerned with s and p orbitals.
Valence electrons are represented by dots placed around the chemical symbol. Electrons are placed up to two on each side of the elemental symbol for a maximum of eight, which is the number of electrons in a filled s and p shell. We place a single electron on each side before pairing them up (this is related to Hund's rule). Period one (hydrogen and helium) represents an exception where only a maximum of two electrons are placed on one side of the element

Carbon - 1s22s22p2 - four valence electrons
