Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the Lewis structure, it is important to look for the electrons of each atom in the Periodic Table of Elements.

C has 4 valence atoms, H has 1 valence atom and Cl has 7 valence atoms.

We write the C atom in the center. Then we have to complete the Octet in each atom, except in Hydrogen, because it can only has 2 electrons bonded.
