Answer 1

Answer:

Watch the attached image, please.

Explanation:

To complete the Lewis structure for this covalent compound, you have to draw all the atoms with their valence electrons.

The drew has the nitrogen in the center and the fluoride and oxygen in the sides.

Each one of these atoms has to complete the octet rule, which is the ruler who says that all the atoms want to reach to have eight electrons to feel "stable".

For that reason, you have to arrange the atoms to comply with this rule.
