You're asking for dot-and-cross diagrams for the compounds mentioned in part b)(ii) of the previous question.
From the flow chart, compound A is formed by the hydrogenation of ethene (CH₂=CH₂) in Step II.

CH2=CH2+H2→NiCH3−CH3\text{CH}_2=\text{CH}_2 + \text{H}_2 \xrightarrow{\text{Ni}} \text{CH}_3-\text{CH}_3

So, compound A is ethane (CH₃CH₃).

Here are the dot-and-cross diagrams for ethane (Compound A) and ethene (CH₂=CH₂):

a) Ethane (Compound A, CH₃CH₃)
Each carbon atom has 4
