Answer 1

hope it will help you.

Answer 2

Answer :  The structure of $HOClO_3$ is shown below.

Explanation :

Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and it also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.

In the Lewis-dot structure the valance electrons are shown by 'dot'.

The given molecule is, $HOClO_3$

As we know that chlorine has '7' valence electrons, hydrogen has '1' valence electron and oxygen has '6' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in $HOClO_3$ = 1 + 4(6) + 7 = 32

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 16 number of bonding electrons and 16 number of non-bonding electrons.

Hence, the Lewis-dot structure of $HOClO_3$ is shown below.
