Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

In equations 7-5 through 7-8, all the atoms lacking an octet are to be identified.

Concept introduction:

There are certain atoms of certain elements that can exist in stable compounds forming bonds with less than eight valence electrons. When this occurs, the atom of the element within the molecule is said to have atoms lacking an octet.

Draw a reasonable resonance structure for the following species. Draw out all bonds to the oxygen atom in your answer.
Consider the Lewis structure shown for thionitromethane. Draw the major resonance structure for the compound shown; include lone pairs of electrons, formal charges, and condensed hydrogen atoms (located in the More menu). Then draw curved arrows to show how this can be converted to the Lewis structure given.
Draw the Lewis structures for the following four molecules, being sure to show all steps following the methods covered in class. Structures without work shown will be marked incorrect. Also, one of these molecules has resonance structures – for this compound, make sure to include all resonance structures, indicate formal charges for each atom.   SO2 OF2 IF3 NH4+
