Potassium oxide (K2O) is an ionic compound, not a molecule, and does not have 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.
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.
A couple problems with this question: 1. There is no such compound as NaCl3. 2. Sodium is an alkali metal and Cl is a halogen, and the two would always form the ionic compound NaCl, not a covalent compound. You cannot draw Lewis structures for ionic compounds. You can draw Lewis electron diagrams for the individual ions (Na+ and Cl-), but not a structure for the ionic compound.
Calcium phosphate is the chemical name for the molecular compound of the formula Ca3(PO4)2. The Lewis dot structure representing calcium phosphate is:

The correct Lewis structure for a molecule of the compound C2H2 contains an alkyne bond. This is a triple bond between two C atoms. It has a linear bond geometry and no lone pairs.
A Lewis dot structure is a 2D way of representing a 3D covalent compound. The chemical symbols are connected by lines which represent a pair of shared electrons.
Calcium phosphate is the chemical name for the molecular compound of the formula Ca3(PO4)2. The Lewis dot structure representing calcium phosphate is:
Ligroin, or benzine (also known as petroleum ether) is not a specific compound, but a range of hydrocarbons that result during fractional distillation of petroleum. There is no Lewis dot structure for a mixture.
Hydrazine is an inorganic compound of the formula N2H4. The Lewis structure for Hydrazine has two central N atoms single bonded and each bonded to two H atoms.
One Al and three Cl
This is an ionic compound. Sodium is positively charged and is paired with the negatively charged BH4 molecule, which, in Lewis dot structure form, comprises a boron atom connected to four H atoms.
