Answer : The Lewis-dot structure of 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,
As we know that rubidium has '1' valence electrons, iodine has '7' valence electrons and oxygen has '6' valence electrons.
Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in = 1 + 7 + 2(6) = 20
As we know that is an ionic compound because it is formed by the transfer of electron takes place from metal to non-metal element.
