Because iodine is a homonuclear diatomic element, an unbonded atom of iodine will have the subscript of 2. If we draw the Lewis structures for both iodine atoms, we will find that each has 7 dots around it. This is because iodine is in group 7A on the periodic table. Then, by putting the two structures side by side, with the lone electrons (or dots) are facing each other. This will create a single bond. The entire molecule should look similar to this:
.. ..
:I-I:
.. ..
This is an exception to the rule of 8 valence electrons. Two boron atoms connect with a triple bond, and there are only 6 electrons present in each atoms outer shell.
I - I - I with 3 pairs of electrons on each each Iodine atom for a total of 22 valence electrons. The middle I has 3 pairs of electrons and that is why it disagrees with the octet rule
same as fluorine just with an I instead of F. 7 valence electrons in group 17
There is no Lewis structure for sodium iodide it is an ionic bond so therefore requires an electron dot diagram
I-S-I, with 16 nonbonded electrons (4 around S and 6 around each I)

lewis structure of Cl2O7
Lewis structure was created in 1916.
What is Lewis Structure for the bicarbonate ion
No, not exactly. It is an ionic compound so it would not have a Lewis dot structure. However, the carbonate anion, CO3^2- does have a Lewis dot structure.
Potassium oxide (K2O) is an ionic compound, not a molecule, and does not have a Lewis structure.

What is Lewis Structure for the bicarbonate ion
Yes, XeF4, or xenon tetrafluoride, has a Lewis structure.
No, not exactly. It is an ionic compound so it would not have a Lewis dot structure. However, the carbonate anion, CO3^2- does have a Lewis dot structure.
Potassium oxide (K2O) is an ionic compound, not a molecule, and does not have a Lewis structure.
Resonance
The maximum number of electrons in a Lewis structure is eight, which is an octet of electrons.
CaCO3 does not have a lewis structure because this molecule is composed of ions. (Ca+2 and CO3-2). you have to draw the lewis structure of the ions separately, as shown in the parenthesis.
