The Lewis dot structure for NaCl shows Na with one valence electron donating to Cl, which has 7 valence electrons. The resulting structure has Na surrounded by 8 electrons (full octet) and Cl surrounded by 8 electrons (full octet).
The coordination number is six for Na in NaCl.
A couple problems with this question: 1. There is no such compound as NaCl3. 2. Sodium is an alkali metal and Cl is a halogen, and the two would always form the ionic compound NaCl, not a covalent compound. You cannot draw Lewis structures for ionic compounds. You can draw Lewis electron diagrams for the individual ions (Na+ and Cl-), but not a structure for the ionic compound.
The structure of crystals may be studied by diffractometry.
In the Lewis electron dot structure for NaCl, sodium (Na) will donate its one valence electron to chlorine (Cl), which has seven valence electrons. This results in both Na and Cl achieving a full outer shell of electrons, making them stable. The final structure will show Na with no dots and Cl surrounded by eight dots.

The Lewis dot structure for germanium (Ge) is: Ge: :Ge:
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 crystalline structure of sodium chloride is face-centered cubic.
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.
