A step-by-step explanation of how to draw the HS- Lewis Dot Structure.

For the HS- structure use the periodic table to find the total number of valence electrons for the HS- molecule. Once we know how many valence electrons there are in HS- we can distribute them around the central atom with the goal of filling the outer shells of each atom.

In the Lewis structure of HS- structure there are a total of 8 valence electrons. HS- is also called Hydrosulfide ion.
