Answer:

See explanation and image attached

Step-by-step explanation:

Hydrogen peroxide is made up of two atoms of hydrogen and two atoms of oxygen as shown in the image attached.

The two oxygen atoms are joined together by a single covalent bond and each of the oxygen atoms are bonded to one hydrogen atom each.

There are two lone pairs on each of the oxygen atoms.

The Lewis(dot) structure for hydrogen peroxide is shown in the image attached to this answer.
