Hope this helps u buddy

Explanation:

This question is best answered visually. So, here is a very helpful and detailed image I found by googling “Lithium oxide Lewis Dot Structure”.

So basically, the Lithium atoms each lose one valence electron and the Oxygen gains the 2 electrons from Lithium. This leaves Lithium ions with a charge of 1+ each and Oxygen ion with a charge of 2-. These charges came as Lithium atoms each lost one electron leaving it with an extra proton each which has positive charge and Oxygen gained 2 electrons which leaves it with 2 extra electrons giving it a negative charge.
