You may find the Lewis dot structure of the CH₃-Br in the attached picture.
Explanation:
In the Lewis dot structure we represent the unpaired electrons using dots.
Bromide have one electron shared with one electron from the carbon to form a covalent bond, while the remaining electrons remains unpaired. We represent the six unpaired electrons of the bromide with dots.

Answer:
The charge carried by each ion (oxidation state of each atom)
Explanation:
If we have an ionic compound and we want to write its formula, we must first know the magnitude of charge on each ion (shown as oxidation state of the atoms involved) because the magnitude of charge on each ion is eventually crisscrossed and gives the subscript (number of atoms) for each atom in the formula.
For instance, let us write the formula of calcium bromide. Ca has a charge of +2 while Br has a charge of -1. If we exchange the charges and ignore the signs such that the crisscrossed charges form subscripts we can now write; .
