There are 2 valence electrons from the hydrogen atoms, and 6 valence electrons from the oxygen atom..........
Explanation:
And thus we have to distribute 8 electrons in the Lewis dot diagram.
)
Of course, the electronic geometry is tetrahedral that leads to
Note that I distinguish between electronic geometry, and molecular geometry.
