Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Structure of aspartame $\left({\text{C}}_{\text{14}}{\text{H}}_{\text{18}}{\text{N}}_{\text{2}}{\text{O}}_{\text{5}}\right)$ has to be completed by representing the position of multiple bonds and lone pairs.

Concept introduction:

Electron-dot structure:

This is only way to show the sharing of electrons between atom in polar covalent bonds or covalent bond.  This is often called Lewis structure.  This structure denotes valence electrons of an atom by dots and also it shows the way of valence electron distributed within a molecule.
