In this model the arrangement of bonds around the central atom is considered to depend upon how many valence-shell electron pairs.

在这个模型中，认为围绕中心原子的化学键的排列取决于价层中电子对的数量。

So, Lewis structures are really a model for a way to think about what the valence electron configuration is, and as I said, it's not based on quantum mechanics, it's something that Lewis observed far, far before quantum mechanics were discovered.

路易斯结构实际上是一个用来考虑价,电子排布的模型，而就像我说的，它并不以量子力学为基础，而是路易斯在以前发现的,在量子力学出现很早前。
