Graeme W. Watson coauthored research on lone pair.^[ref]

A lone pair is an electron pair assigned to one chemical atom without a connecting line to another chemical atom in a Lewis structure. It is usually shown as two dots. Water has two lone pairs on oxygen, accounting for four valence electrons; Ammonia has one lone pair on nitrogen, accounting for two. In $\mathrm{O}=\mathrm{C}=\mathrm{O}$, each oxygen has two lone pairs, and carbon has none.
