I need to determine what type of covalent bond SiC2 (silicon dicarbide) and so creating the lewis dot diagram is helpful. I know I have 12 electrons available but I can't seem to draw it :/

Try this attachment. I'm not 100% sure about the structure, but it'll give you a rough idea!

:C = C = Si: is another one!
