Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Formal charges on respective atom in below structure have to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
The formal charge is the charge assigned on each atom irrespective of its electronegativity so that electrons are equally shared between the atoms. The formal charge on each atom in the Lewis structure can be calculated from the equation written as follows:
