or, it may be written as follows where each line represents two electrons being shared by two elements:

H-C-H
All letters should be capitalized on this Lewis Dot structure. For some reason, this software automatically changes the format. Nonetheless, this structure shows single covalent bonds (sharing of electrons) connecting the hydrogen atoms to a single carbon atom, and a double bond attaching the carbon and oxygen atoms. Also, there are two unshared pairs of electrons on the oxygen atom.
Louis Dot created the Dot Diagram.
They are called Lewis Dot Diagrams because of the man who came up with the idea, Lewis Gilbert
No, because water is polar and CH20 is nonpolar. Polar and nonpolar substances don't mix.
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.
