**Consider the provided Lewis structure and fill in the following blanks with numerical answers (just the number, no words).**

[Image of Lewis structure]

- Central Atoms: Two Carbon (C) atoms
- Bonds: 
  - Nitrogen (N) bonded to Carbon with a single bond
  - Oxygen (O) bonded to Carbon with a double bond
  - Sulfur (S) bonded to Carbon with a single bond
- Additional Elements Attached:
  - Hydrogen (H) atoms are bonded to Nitrogen and Carbon
  - Lone Pairs are visible on Oxygen and possibly Sulfur

**Questions:**

1. How many lone pairs are shown in this Lewis structure? 

   **Answer:** 7

2. How many total electrons are depicted in this Lewis structure? 

   **Answer:** 21

This educational content helps students to visualize and calculate key aspects of molecular structure using Lewis diagrams, fostering a deeper understanding of chemical bonding and electron arrangement.
