How to Draw the Lewis Dot Structure for BO3 3- | Borate Ion
A step-by-step explanation of how to draw the BO3 3- Lewis Dot Structure.
For the BO3 3- structure use the periodic table to find the total number of valence electrons for the BO3 3- molecule. Once we know how many valence electrons there are in BO3 3- we can distribute them around the central atom with the goal of filling the outer shells of each atom.
In the Lewis structure of BO3 3- structure there are a total of 18 valence electrons. BO3 3- is also called the Borate ion.
