Concept introduction:
An electron dot formula is a way of representing the molecular structure in which electrons are represented by a dot. Structural formula is a way in which atoms are linked together through a solid line. This solid line represents the covalent bond. An electron dot structure is known as Lewis structure. Electron dot structure indicates the valence electrons of an atom which are involved in bonding.

Figure 4
Each solid line, in Figure 4, between the nitrogen and oxygen atom is the covalent bond which is made up of two electrons. This bond is formed by sharing of electrons between the central atom nitrogen and the surrounding oxygen atom. Bond between oxygen and hydrogen is also a covalent bond. Bond between nitrogen and oxygen with red arrow is the coordinate bond. This shows the sharing of nitrogen electrons between the oxygen and the nitrogen.
