trong>Exercise 12.3 Ozone is a very important constituent of the atmosphere. At upper levels it protects us by absorbing high-energy radiation from the sun. Near the earth's surface it produces harmful air pollution. Write the Lewis structure for ozone,
Interpretation:
The Lewis structure for ozone,
Concept Introduction:
The solid line in Lewis structures indicates the connectivity between atoms. Each dot around an atom represents electrons. If there are seven dots, it shows that seven electrons are present. In Lewis symbol, the elements and valence electrons are represented by their symbol and dots respectively.
The steps to draw Lewis structure for
STEP 1: The electronic configuration of oxygen is
STEP 2: Three oxygen atoms are present in ozone due to which the valence electrons in ozone are
