::O=:Cl.=O:: <-----best i could do on a comp but u know what i mean
Valence electrons = 19
Chlorine attaches to the oxygens through double bonds, and and each oxygen has two lone pairs to complete its octet. The chlorine also one lone pair and one electron. Chlorine in this structure obviously doesnot obeys octet rule but in chlorine there is 3d subshell in which electrons are promoted and hence chlorine can also have 3,5 and 7 bonds.
The Lewis dot structure for sodium acetate starts with a pair of singly bonded C atoms in the middle. The right C has three H atoms singly bonded to it, and the left C has one O atom singly bonded and another O atom doubly bonded. The singly bonded O atom has a pair of dots on each unbonded side and the other O atom is singly bonded to the H atom and has a pair of dots.
The Lewis Structure for HClO3 is as follows:
Place 'Cl' atom as central atom with one pair of valence electrons. Draw single bonds to 3 'O' atoms. Two 'O' atoms have 3 pairs of valence electrons. The third has 2 pairs of valence electrons, from this one, draw another single bond to a 'H' atom. I'll try to draw it out with its formal charges... sorry, there is no way to draw the valence electrons...

O-
Hope this helped. I hate Mastering Chemistry too, in case that is what you're doing...

...Cl
Cl - C - Cl
=
O(double bond with C)
DONT FORGET VALENCE ELECTRONS
CL 's - 7
O - 6
C - 4
the structoin of it is blah blah the tip of glass
The Lewis structure of OCl2 has each Cl atom single bonded to an O atom in the center. The unbonded side of every atom then has a pair of dots.
HClO
There is ClO2 and ClO2^-. For the chlorite anion (ClO2^-) the Cl will have 10 electrons and will violate the octet rule. For ClO2, all elements will have 8 electrons.
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.

ClO2 → Cl + O2
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.
