The Lewis dot structure for germanium (Ge) is: Ge: :Ge:
A synonym for Lewis diagram is Lewis structure. It is a schematic representation of the bonding between atoms in a molecule and the arrangement of valence electrons around atoms.
The electron dot structure and Lewis dot structure are the same thing. They both represent the arrangement of valence electrons in an atom or molecule using dots around the chemical symbol.
zncl2 is linear. so, put the chemical symbols zn, cl and another cl (where zn is between two Cl symbols in a straight line) and put two dots in two spaces between zinc and chlorine molecules. (so u'll have four electrons (dots) surrounding zinc). this is the lewis structure and its that simple becoz there are no lone pairs on zinc as its valency is two.
There are 16 dots in the Lewis Dot Structure of H2Se. Each hydrogen atom contributes 1 dot and selenium contributes 6 dots.
A Lewis dot structure for potassium (K) would have one dot, representing its single valence electron.
There are 18 valence electrons represented in the Lewis electron-dot structure for SO2.
The Lewis Dot Structure for Ununoctium (Uuo) would have 8 valence electrons represented as dots surrounding the atomic symbol. However, as Ununoctium is a synthetic element and its chemical properties are not well-known, its Lewis Dot Structure is not commonly depicted.
5 electrons where two electrons are paired and three are unpaired

An atom of potassium should have one dot in its Lewis-dot structure. This dot represents the single valence electron in the outer shell of the potassium atom.
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.
