Hello everyone today. We are being asked to provide the loose dot symbol oxygen, Referring to the periodic table. We know that since oxygen is in the 6th column, it has six valence electrons, so represent that. We simply draw the symbol from oxygen, which is oh, And then we draw six electrons around it. First we draw individual electrons around it and then we pair them up. This is our symbol for oxygen. I hope this helped, and until next time.
