Question
Chapter 1, Problem 55P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:The formal charge on the compound should be chosen.
Concept introduction: Formal charge is defined as hypothetical charge present on atom present in molecule. The electrons donated by atom in molecule get positive charge and atom to that electron gets donated get negative charge
Similarly, most organometallic species have polarity that is due to difference in electronegativities of metal an organic species.
