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.
6 Dots
The Lewis dot structure of elemental (biatomic) oxygen (O) have three of its sides surrounded by valence electrons. The Lewis dot would be 3 of these individual O2 structures: .. .. :O::O: .. ..

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.
The electron-dot structure of sodium atom is 'Na-dot' or 'Na.' One dot is one valence electron.

the structure is as follows: Na + -:O:H ( I couldn't insert it in this box, but Oxygen (O) has 2 electrons above it and 2 electrons below it to fufil the octet.)

Will this link help you?, it is quite impossible to draw a Lewis dot structure in this simple text editor. See related links.

Refer to the related link for an illustration of the formation of sodium chloride using Lewis dot structures.
The correct Lewis Structure for the oxygen atom will be an 'O' with two dots above and below, with one dot on the left and on the right sides.

Na . there is one electon in the outer shell so there is only one dot
