The Lewis structure for CS2 is pretty straightforward! You've got the carbon atom (C) in the middle with double bonds connecting it to two sulfur atoms (S) on either side. So, it's like C=S=S with a total of 16 valence electrons involved. Both sulfur atoms have two lone pairs of electrons, while the carbon atom doesn't have any. Makes for a simple linear structure.

CS2 Lewis structure? Just think of it as a straight line: Carbon in the middle, sulfur on the ends, double-bonded. Easy peasy.

Honestly, just draw a C with an equal sign to an S on each side. That’s your CS2 Lewis structure. All about those double bonds!
