How can I space three dots uniformly as a skinny hamburger menu icon?

Question

I want the code to show up the 3 bars, and the 3 dots to eventually be dropdown options. For some reason the 1st out of the 3 dots does not want to be spaced correctly.

#dropdown {
  background: #3f51b5;
  padding: 30px;
  margin: 0px;
}

#dot {
  width: 5px;
  height: 5px;
  background: white;
  border-radius: 50%;
  float: right;
}

#bar {
  width: 25px;
  height: 3px;
  background: white;
  margin: 5px;
}

<div id="dropdown">
  <div id="dot"></div>
  <div id="bar"></div>
  <div id="dot"></div>
  <div id="bar"></div>
  <div id="dot"></div>
  <div id="bar"></div>
</div>

This is a hard thing to do with floats. A possible solution could be to wrap the dots and the bars within a div. Afterwards you can position those wrapping divs in the style you like. I used flexbox for this in the following snippet.

#dropdown {
  display: flex;
  justify-content: space-between;
  align-items: center;
  background: #3f51b5;
  padding: 30px;
  margin: 0px;
}

.dot {
  width: 5px;
  height: 5px;
  margin: 5px;
  background: white;
  border-radius: 50%;
}

.bar {
  width: 25px;
  height: 3px;
  background: white;
  margin: 5px;
}

<div id="dropdown">
  <div>
    <div class="bar"></div>
    <div class="bar"></div>
    <div class="bar"></div>
  </div>
  <div>
    <div class="dot"></div>
    <div class="dot"></div>
    <div class="dot"></div>
  </div>
</div>

p.s.: you should use the keyword class instead of id for repeating elements. This might still work, but is considered bad practice and might break javascript implementations using that id.
