Question
Chapter 2, Problem 9CTQ
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation : The Lewis structure of carbon dioxide in Model 2 best fit for the experiments indicating that both carbon to oxygen bonds are identical should be discussed.
Concept Introduction : A legitimate Lewis structure is an electron dot and line bond representation in which the total number of valence electrons is indicated. Number of valence electrons around hydrogen is two. Number of valence electrons around carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine atom is eight. This is called the octet rule.

Draw a lewis structure for each ion. Show complete computations (e.g. formal charges, # of electrons). Do not copy from previous answered questions here or from any other sites.
Draw the lewis structure of SO2 ( best resonance) and 2nd best resonance showing the shape and bond angles of each one, the 3D structure with polar bonds or bonds dipole of each one and the molecular polarity.
Here is an example of what I want the answer to be like:
I got this marked wrong on an assignment, but I'm not sure why.
Please help me find the correct resonance structure.
