Lewis structure

Draw the Lewis structure of oxygen. Start by drawing the overall structure of the molecule, ignoring potential double and triple bonds:  Count the total valence electrons of the oxygen (n_O, val = 6) atoms: 2 n_O, val = 12 Calculate the number of electrons needed to completely fill the valence shells for oxygen (n_O, full = 8): 2 n_O, full = 16 Subtracting these two numbers shows that 16 - 12 = 4 bonding electrons are needed. Each bond has two electrons, so in addition to the 1 bond already present in the diagram add 1 bond. Identify the atoms that want additional bonds and the number of electrons remaining on each atom:  Fill in the 1 bond by pairing electrons between adjacent highlighted atoms: Answer: |   |
