Cl-C=C-H
chlorine has 7 already, so it just wants one extra, from carbon. hydrogen only has one to give, so it can o to carbon. Carbons will usually always want to bond with each other and they need 4; so there will always need to be 4 bonds on carbon to get them to an octet
(ignore the "....'s" because its the only way the bond would stay in place

∙ 11y agoDichlorodifluoromethane has a tetrahedral arrangement, meaning the two fluorine and two chlorine atoms are bonded to a central carbon atom as shown below. This is very difficult to do in this format (ignore the tildes ~ that I had to use to get the spacing), but the central C has 8 electrons around it, and on the 4 sides are 2 Cl and 2 F atoms, also with 8 electrons around them:

What are diagrams?
There are two types of diagrams one is the Lewis diagram the other is the Electron dot diagram. To make the electron dot diagram you put the electron symbol and put a dot on one of the sides for each period (you don't count the middle section.) . . :Ne: = Neon dot diagram ' '
Electron dot structure for elements?

Dot diagrams are used to represent?
A dot diagram (also called an Electron Dot Diagram, and a Lewis Structure) is a way to show the valence electrons that surround an element. See related link for a good lesson on how to make a dot diagram.
What is the Louis Dot diagram?
The Louis Dot Diagram explains covalent bonding, which is the sharing of electrons between two elements.
What information can you get from electron dot diagram?
1. An electron dot diagram can show you that the symbols for an element surrounded by dots. Each dot stands for one valence electron.
