In the Lewis structure of formaldehyde, there are 2 nonbonding electrons on the oxygen atom.
In the Lewis structure of CH2Br2, carbon is the central atom with hydrogen atoms on one side and two bromine atoms on the other. There are no nonbonding electrons on the central carbon atom. Each hydrogen atom contributes 1 nonbonding electron, and each bromine atom contributes 3 nonbonding electrons, resulting in a total of 8 nonbonding electrons in the molecule.
There are two nonbonding domains in the CO2 molecule. Each oxygen atom has two lone pairs of electrons that are not involved in bonding with the carbon atom.
Lewis structures show the arrangement of valence electrons in a molecule, indicating bonding and nonbonding pairs. Kekule structures specifically refer to resonance structures used to depict the delocalization of electrons in aromatic compounds like benzene. Lewis structures are used for any molecule, while Kekule structures are specific to aromatic compounds.
A nonmetal atom typically follows the octet rule in a Lewis structure, meaning it is surrounded by 8 electrons. This includes bonding electrons (shared with other atoms) and nonbonding electrons (lone pairs).

In the Lewis structure of ethylene glycol, a total of 16 valence electrons need to be shown. There are 6 pairs of electrons that are bonding (forming bonds between O-H, C-O and C-C) and 2 pairs of electrons that are nonbonding (on the oxygen atoms).
There are two nonbonding domains in the CO2 molecule. Each oxygen atom has two lone pairs of electrons that are not involved in bonding with the carbon atom.
The answer is 12. If you draw the lewis dot structure for formaldehyde, you have to remember to draw the non-bonding pairs on the oxygen atom, and when you count all the electrons, remember that the lines used to represent bonds are counted as 2.

16 is the total number of electrons shown in the Lewis Structure of Carbon Dioxide.
Inner shell electrons are not typically represented in a Lewis structure. Lewis structures focus on the valence electrons, which are the electrons in the outermost energy level of an atom. Inner shell electrons are generally not involved in chemical bonding and are not shown in a typical Lewis structure.
Lewis acids are electron pair acceptors, while Lewis bases are electron pair donors. In other words, Lewis acids are substances that can accept an electron pair to form a new bond, whereas Lewis bases are substances that can donate an electron pair to form a new bond.
In the Lewis structure of carbon dioxide, there are a total of 16 electrons. Carbon (C) has 4 valence electrons, and each oxygen (O) atom has 6 valence electrons.
