General, Organic, & Biological Chemistry, Chapter 11, Problem 11.36P

Concept introduction:

To add lone pair to an atom, first find the valence electron of the particular atom. After that find how many electrons are used in bond formation and then put the remaining valence electron on that particular atom.

The following table should be used while determining the shape around a carbon atom.
