Oxygen contains 6 Protons, Hydrogen contains 1 Proton, and the total charge is -1. Therefor, the number of Electrons is 8.
There are two lone pairs of electrons on the oxygen atom in the Lewis structure of CH3OH.
There are 18 valence electrons represented in the Lewis electron-dot structure for SO2.
H2CO. The oxygen will have two pairs of non-bonding electrons
Four valence electrons need to be accommodated in the Lewis structure for F2. Each fluorine atom contributes seven valence electrons, totaling to fourteen valence electrons in the molecule.
In the Lewis dot structure for the phosphate ion (PO₄²⁻), you would represent 32 electrons - 5 from phosphorus and 7 from each of the four oxygen atoms, for a total of 32 electrons.

The hexafluorosilicate ion, SiF6^2-, has a total of 48 valence electrons available for constructing its Lewis structure.
In the Lewis structure of SO2, there should be 18 valence electrons - 6 from sulfur and 6 from each oxygen atom.
Four valence electrons need to be accommodated in the Lewis structure for F2. Each fluorine atom contributes seven valence electrons, totaling to fourteen valence electrons in the molecule.
In the Lewis dot structure for the phosphate ion (PO₄²⁻), you would represent 32 electrons - 5 from phosphorus and 7 from each of the four oxygen atoms, for a total of 32 electrons.
There are two lone pairs of electrons in the most stable Lewis structure of the nitrate ion (NO3-). The nitrogen atom has a full octet (eight electrons) and does not have any lone pairs in this structure.
6 valence electrons need to be accommodated in the Lewis structure for OF2. This accounts for the oxygen atom's 6 valence electrons and the fluorine atom's 1 valence electron each.
In the Lewis structure of HF, hydrogen has 1 valence electron while fluorine has 7 valence electrons. They share one electron in the bond between them. Therefore, hydrogen doesn't have any lone electrons, but fluorine has 6 lone electrons.
In a Lewis structure, each bond typically represents 2 electrons, so the number of octets would depend on the number of bonds and lone pairs around the central atom. For most main group elements, the goal is to achieve an octet of electrons (8 electrons) around each atom, although there are exceptions for elements like hydrogen and helium.
