Solution
Electron dot:
\[\begin{array}{cc}
\ce{\underset{\bullet\bullet}{\mathbf{H}}}\\
\ce{\mathbf{H} ^{\bullet}_{\bullet} \mathbf{C}^{\bullet}_{\bullet} \mathbf{H}}\\
\ce{\overset{\bullet\bullet}{\mathbf{H}}}\
\end{array}\]
Molecular structure:
\[\begin{array}{cc}
\ce{H}\\
|\\
\ce{H - C - H}\\
|\\
\phantom{.}\ce{H}\
\end{array}\]
Notes
Students should refer to the answer according to their questions.
