  ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Chapter 1, Problem 66ASP

Concept Introduction: Any atom with a formal charge lacks the necessary number of valence electrons. Formal charge is assigned when an atom is present in Lewis structure.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
Draw Lewis structures for tye following molecules. a.) Atom "X" has 4 valence electrons and Atom "Y" has 6 valence electrons. Draw the Lewis structure for the molecule XY2, showing all lone pairs and formal charges when necessary b.) Atom "M" has 5 valence electrons and Atom "L" has 7 valence electrons. Draw the Lewis structure for the molecule M2L4, showing all lone pairs and formal charges when necessary
Write a Lewis structure for each of the following molecules/ions. Be sure to show all non-zero formal charges. Start by counting the valence electrons.
a.)Draw a Lewis diagram for IO4- in which the central I atom has a formal charge of zero and show all NONZERO formal charges on all atoms. note overall charge of ion is -1   b.)Draw a Lewis structure for IO4- in which the octet rule is satisfied on all atoms and show all NONZERO formal charges on all atoms. C.Based on formal charge, what is the best Lewis structure for the ion? smallest formal charge or octet rule satisfied for all atoms
