None; the oxygen has 2 missing "spaces" for electrons. The two hydrogens have 1 missing "space" for an electron each. Through sharing, all of the atoms fulfill the octet rule. (8 e- in outermost orbital)

Draw a Lewis structure for CH2Br2 and answer the question of how many nonbonding electrons are there in this molecule?

In the Lewis structure of CH2Br2, carbon is the central atom with hydrogen atoms on one side and two bromine atoms on the other. There are no nonbonding electrons on the central carbon atom. Each hydrogen atom contributes 1 nonbonding electron, and each bromine atom contributes 3 nonbonding electrons, resulting in a total of 8 nonbonding electrons in the molecule.

How many nonbonding electrons are there in crotononitrile?

The molecular formula for crotononitrile is C4H5N, so the total number of electrons in the molecule is (6 X 4) + (1 X 5) + 7 = 24 + 5 + 7 = 36. The total number of bonded electrons in crotononitrile is 24, leaving 12 electrons nonbonded.
