It has the Lewis structure of a molecule with an octahedral arrangement.
The lone pair around Xe is sterochemically inactive, allowing it to have this arrangement.
However, because of this lone pair XeF6 does not have a perfect octahedral arrangement. This does not change it's Lewis structure, but it does change its point group if that matters to you. It puts the molecule in the C3V point group instead of the Oh point group.
The structure of XeF6 is same as KrF6 and has no lone pairs.
XeF6 = Xe + 3F2 - trigonal structure
KrF6 = Kr + 3F2
Total valence electrons Kr + 6 (F) that is 8+6(7) = 50
We'll start bonding 6 F around Kr with single bonds and we'll be left with 38 electrons.
Now out of these 38 electrons 36 will be put around each F in the form of 3 lone pairs and remaining two electrons will be put on central Kr as a lone pair along with 6 bond pairs.

The oxidation state of xenon (Xe) in XeOF4 is +6. This is because oxygen typically has an oxidation state of -2, so in XeOF4 with four oxygen atoms, the xenon must have an oxidation state of +6 to balance the charges.

The Lewis dot structure for germanium (Ge) is: Ge: :Ge:
Yes, CaCO3 (calcium carbonate) has a Lewis structure. The Lewis structure for CaCO3 shows the arrangement of all the atoms and the bonding between them using dots to represent the valence electrons.
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.
XeO3 can be prepared by reacting xenon oxyfluoride (XeOF4) with water. XeOF4 can be prepared by the reaction of xenon with oxygen difluoride (OF2). Both reactions are carried out under controlled conditions in a laboratory setting.

The XeOF4 molecule is polar. This is because the molecule has a trigonal bipyramidal geometry with the lone pairs of electrons on the oxygen atom creating an uneven distribution of charge.
A synonym for Lewis diagram is Lewis structure. It is a schematic representation of the bonding between atoms in a molecule and the arrangement of valence electrons around atoms.

There are two lone pairs of electrons on the oxygen atom in the Lewis structure of CH3OH.
The Lewis structure for an anion with a -1 charge would contain one more electron than the Lewis structure for the neutral species. An anion gains an electron to achieve a stable octet and a negative charge.
