Xe is central atom and has an expanded valence.
Since it is the central atom you will put it in the middle.
Xe
this is hard to demonstrate so I apologize if you get confused. Continuing, you will then place the 4 Flourines around the Xe. Each F has 7 valence electrons.

each F will have a single bond with Xenon. Then oxygen will have a double bond with Xenon to complete the Lewis structure.

Hope this helped!!
This is an exception to the octet rule, meaning you will have more than 8 electrons on the Xe in the center.
There are 12 electrons to be placed. 4 + 8 = 12. 4 comes from the hydrogens which each give one, and 8 from the Xe because it is in the 8A group.
They will be arranged so that all have a single bond to H and that leaves you with 4 electrons still to place to make 12. So they go on the Xe (two pairs).

The Xe is in the center with double bonds to all four O. It's a tetrahedral molecule.

It would be the Xe surrounded by 8 dots.
If you are referring to a Lewis Dot Structure, Xenon has Xe surrounded by eight dots.
The Lewis dot structure for Xe starts with the Xe atom in the center. There are six possible bond locations for Xe, on four of them there is a singly bonded H atom. On the other two are a pair of dots.

Xenon does not have to follow the octet rule because of its access to the 4d sublevel. The Lewis structure of XeO3 places a Xe in the center, double bonded to three O atoms and with one lone pair on the Xe.

Neodymium is: [Xe] 6s2 4f4.

What is Lewis Structure for the bicarbonate ion
Yes, XeF4, or xenon tetrafluoride, has a Lewis structure.
Xenon (Xe) does not have to follow the octet rule because of its access to the 4d sublevel. Xe is placed in the center and single bonded to two fluorine atoms that are 180 degrees apart. There are 3 lone pairs on the Xe 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.
Potassium oxide (K2O) is an ionic compound, not a molecule, and does not have a Lewis structure.
