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.
do the Lewis structure. It has all the answers. :)
No. There is only a single bond.
The Lewis structure of sulfur dioxide has two double bonds between the sulfur and oxygen atoms. The S in the center has two double dashes, each connected to an O. The S then has one set of double dots and each O has two sets of double dots.

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

sulfur fluoride
The Lewis structure of SbCl5 has the Sb in the center with 5 Cl molecules branching off like a star. The branches of the molecules should be drawn as straight lines.
For the structure of hydrogen fluoride (HF) see the link bellow.

Sulfur dioxide has three resonance structures. A singly bonded oxygen would have 3 unshared electron pairs while a doubly bonded oxygen would have 2. The sulfur has one pair.

sulfur soda hexa fluoride is an invisible gas that is heavier than the air we breath, so when in a "Contained" area,ie a fish tank, the invisible sulfur soda hexa fluoride will cause very light items to "float on air" giving the appearance that the water is invisible. It is the exact opposite of helium.
