Resonance Forms Question (b) Draw two resonance forms for nitrite ion, NO2−. What can yousay about the geometry of this molecule (linear or bent)? (Hint: Consider the effect of electron repulsion exerted by the lone pair on nitrogen.) (c) The possibility of valence-shell expansion increases the number of feasibleresonance forms, and it is often difficult to decide on one that is “best.” Onecriterion that is used is whether the Lewis structure predicts bond lengths andbond angles with reasonable accuracy. Draw Lewis octet and valence-shellexpanded resonance forms for SO2⁢(OSO).
