Chlorine = 1 valnce electrone. we have 4 Cl in SiCl4
O= 2 valnece electrons. We have 2 of them, making it here 2 O's too.

No, that's not how many valence electrons those atoms have. Which means you probably didn't read about valence electrons. If you don't invest time in learning the basic principles, you have no hope to answer questions like this correctly. Moreover, if you won't invest time in yourself, why should we invest time in you?

I think I'm done here.

Hey, I'm not judging.  I just like to shoot straight.  I'm a man of science.
