We must say that the diagram is Lewis' diagram.

Lewis structures (also known as Lewis dot structures or electron dot structures) are diagrams that represent the valence electrons of atoms within a molecule.

We also use Lewis symbols to indicate the formation of covalent bonds, which are shown in Lewis structures, drawings that describe the bonding in molecules and polyatomic ions.

This molecule in the photo is from NO2

Answer: A.) Lewis diagram
