Given information
The given molecule is .
Step-by-step explanation
Step 1.
METHODOLOGY TO WRITE LEWIS STRUCTURE
Step 1: Count the total number of valence electrons of every atom.
Step 2: Write the skeleton structure of the molecule.
Step 3: Use two valence electrons to form each bond in the skeleton structure and try to satisfy the octets of the atoms by distributing the remaining valence electrons as nonbonding electrons.
The Lewis structure of is,
Resonating Structure:
No presence of double bond.
