The following are the steps one must follow to draw the structure of an atom: First, find out the atomic number of the element on the periodic table, then draw a small central circle called the nucleus that includes the protons and neutrons. Next, there will be concentric circles around the nucleus for electron shells. Next, fill these shells with dots or crosses for electrons. One can fill around a maximum of 2 electrons in the first shell and a maximum of 8 in the second shell, and so on.
