The Lewis dot structure for phosphorus trifluoride (PF3) consists of a central phosphorus atom with three fluorine atoms attached to it. The phosphorus atom has 5 valence electrons, and each fluorine atom contributes one valence electron. There are three lone pairs on the phosphorus atom.
Nitrogen has the same Lewis dot structure as phosphorus, with five valence electrons and three lone pairs.
The Lewis dot structure for germanium (Ge) is: Ge: :Ge:
In the Lewis dot structure for the phosphate ion (PO₄²⁻), you would represent 32 electrons - 5 from phosphorus and 7 from each of the four oxygen atoms, for a total of 32 electrons.
The electron dot structure and Lewis dot structure are the same thing. They both represent the arrangement of valence electrons in an atom or molecule using dots around the chemical symbol.
A Lewis dot structure for potassium (K) would have one dot, representing its single valence electron.
