Solution

The correct option is C


In lewis symbol, the nucleus and the inner shell electrons are represented by the symbol of the element. While, the valence electrons are represented as dots around the symbol of the element.

The electronic configuration of lithium is 1s2 2s1. Thus, it has only one valence electron which will be depicted by a dot around the symbol of lithium.
