Question

Consider the Lewis structure for the polyatomic oxyanion
shown here, where X is an element from the third period
(Na - Ar). By changing the overall charge, n, from 1- to
2- to 3- we get three different polyatomic ions. For each of
these ions (a) identify the central atom, X; (b) determine the
formal charge of the central atom, X; (c) draw a Lewis structure
that makes the formal charge on the central atom equal
to zero.
