The flouride ion (F-) has 8 electrons. I can't really draw it with text, but it has 4 pairs of electrons arranged around it a bit like this...
..
:F:
'' The top and bottom pairs need to be directly above/below the 'F'
No, there are no double bonds in the Lewis structure for hydrogen fluoride (HF). Hydrogen forms a single bond with fluorine to complete its valence shell, resulting in a stable molecule.
Magnesium fluoride doesn't have a Lewis structure. Lewis structures are only used to show covalent bonds and magnesium fluoride forms an ionic bond. As a general rule of thumb, my chem teacher taught us that a non-metal bonded to a non-metal is a covalent bond and a metal and non-metal bonded together is an ionic bond. Hope it helps. hope this helps more:: What is the correct "Lewis electron-dot structure" for the compound magnesium fluoride? [ F ] (with 8 valence electrons marked with Dots) then a superscript of -1, then Mg^+2, with again the [ F ] (with 8 valence electrons marked with Dots) then a superscript of -1
You want to account for 26 electrons. (6 for the sulfur and 18 for the oxygens and 2 for the overall charge) Place S in the middle with each O single bonded to the Sulfur Atom, one lone pair on the S and each O has 3 lone pairs.
Resonance structure.

The Lewis structure of the compound CCLO is as follows: CCCl-O.
The formal charge of the NCO Lewis structure is zero.
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 size of a chloride ion is much larger than the size of a fluoride ion. CaF2 arranges in the fluorite crystal structure , The holes where these fluoride ions fit in between the closely packed calcium cations are a certain size, which aren't big enough for chloride ions to fit into. Therefore, CaCl2 has to form a different crystal structure that allows for the larger anion size.
The molecular geometry of the BR3 Lewis structure is trigonal planar.
The Lewis structure was created by American chemist Gilbert N. Lewis in 1916. Lewis proposed using dots to represent the valence electrons of an atom in order to show how atoms bond together in molecules.
