- What are the best steps to follow when drawing a lewis structure? I'm getting conflicting steps when determining the central atom.Do you determine it based on electronegativity or if it's the element there's only one of?arrow_forwardAn incomplete Lewis structure is shown below. The structure only shows the atoms and how they are connected. The molecule has a net charge of zero. H Н—N—С- -о—с—Н H H Complete the Lewis structure giving all atoms full octets. If there is more than one way to do this, draw resonance structures showing all possibilities. If not, just draw one Lewis structure. Be sure to write in any non-zero formal charges. Click and drag to start drawing a structure.arrow_forwardWhich of the following Lewis structures shows resonance? There could be more than one answer 1. ) NO3^- 2.) CH4 3.) COH3 4.) CO3^ 2- 5.) NH3arrow_forward
- 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. Note that the overall charge on this ion is -1.arrow_forwardUnshared, or lone, electron pairs play an important role in determining the chemical and physical properties of organic compounds. Thus, it is important to know which atoms carry unshared pairs.Use the structural formulas below to determine the number of unshared pairs at each designated atom.Be sure your answers are consistent with the formal charges on the formulas.arrow_forwardUsing only single bonds, draw two corect Lewis structures of HCIO, one with Cl as the central atom and the other with O as the central atom. Calculate the formal charges of all atoms in each molecule. State which is the more likely structure based on the formal charges. In the previous problem, you drew two structures of HCIO. Are these resonance structures? Explain why or why not.arrow_forward
- Write the Lewis symbols for boron and sulfur.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements concerning the structures below is/are true? Formal charges are not shown. You can select more than one, or none, of these statements. + A B On the basis of formal charges, structure B is more important than structure A. The oxidation state of N is different for each structure. In structure C, the formal charge of O is -1. Structures B and C are nonequivalent resonance structures. In structure B, the formal charge of N is +1. The total charge on this species is -1. H -NC₂=0:arrow_forwardDraw the Lewis structure of the hydronium ion, H3O+. Show all lone pairs and formal charges.arrow_forward

Draw one of the resonance structures for the hydrogen sulfate anion (HSO4−) . Include nonbonding electrons and formal charges where necessary. Do not draw resonance arrows.arrow_forwardDraw Lewis structure(s) for the carbonate lon (CO₂). If there are equivalent resonance structures, draw all of them. n D co₂2: 0 . Draw one structure per sketcher box, and separate added sketcher boxes with the symbol. Do not include overall lon charges or formal charges in your drawing. Do not draw double bonds to oxygen unless they are needed in order for the central atom to obey the octet rule. ● 6 # H Ⓒ CH, CHO: 0 Y Chemic b Draw Lewis structure(s) for the acetaldehyde molecule (CH₂CHO).
