Decide whether these proposed Lewis structures are reasonable. proposed Lewis structure [O=C-H]* :0: : CIC CI: [¤¤-6: 0/5 Is the proposed Lewis structure reasonable? Yes. No, it has the wrong number of valence electrons. The correct number is: 0 No, it has the right number of valence electrons but doesn't satisfy the octet rule. 000 The symbols of the problem atoms are:* Yes. No, it has the wrong number of valence electrons. The correct number is: 0 Alia V No, it has the right number of valence electrons but doesn't satisfy the octet rule. The symbols of the problem atoms are:* Yes. No, it has the wrong number of valence electrons. The correct number is: No, it has the right number of valence electrons but doesn't satisfy the octet rule. The symbols of the problem atoms are:* X Ar If two or more atoms of the same element don't satisfy the octet rule, just enter the chemical symbol as many times as necessary. For example,…arrow_forwardI need help solving for part C in chemistryarrow_forwardThe most important resonance form is (A,B,C, or d) because 1) fewer formal charges 2) formal charges follow electronegativity the best 3) only one that does not violate the octet rulearrow_forward
