Answer: The lewis dot structure is given below
Explanation:
Lewis-dot structure is defined as the structure which represents the number of valence electrons around the atoms. The electrons are represented as dots.
This structure helps in the determination of bonding electrons and non-bonding electrons.
For the given compound [tex]H_3BO_3[/tex]
As we know that boron has '3' valence electrons, hydrogen has '1' valence electron and oxygen has '6' valence electron.
Total number of valence electrons in [tex]H_3BO_3[/tex] = 3 + 3(1) + 3(6) = 24
In [tex]H_3BO_3[/tex], one electron each of 3 oxygen atoms combine with 3 electrons of born and 1 electron each of hydrogen combines with 1 electron each of oxygen atom.
Hence, the lewis dots structure of [tex]H_3BO_3[/tex] is given below in the image attached.
