20. SO42- Formal Charges:

21. Next we show formal charges on the S and O atoms: Note that we can eliminate some of the formal charges for by expanding the S atom’s octet as follows:

22. Formal Charge and Lewis Structures • For neutral molecules, a Lewis structure in which there are no formal charges is preferable to one in which formal charges are present. • Lewis structures with large formal charges are less plausible than those with small formal charges. • Among Lewis structures having similar distributions of formal charges, the most plausible structure is the one in which negative formal charges are placed on the more electronegative atoms.

23. - - + + O O O O O O A resonance structure is one of two or more Lewis structures for a single molecule that cannot be represented accurately by only one Lewis structure.

24. 9.8 Draw three resonance structures for the molecule nitrous oxide, N2O (the atomic arrangement is NNO). Indicate formal charges. Rank the structures in their relative importance to the overall properties of the molecule.

25. 9.8 StrategyThe skeletal structure for N2O is We follow the procedure used for drawing Lewis structures and calculating formal charges in Examples 9.5 and 9.6. SolutionThe three resonance structures are

26. 9.8 We see that all three structures show formal charges. Structure (b) is the most important one because the negative charge is on the more electronegative oxygen atom. Structure (c) is the least important one because it has a larger separation of formal charges. Also, the positive charge is on the more electronegative oxygen atom. CheckMake sure there is no change in the positions of the atoms in the structures. Because N has five valence electrons and O has six valence electrons, the total number of valence electrons is 5 × 2 + 6 = 16. The sum of formal charges is zero in each structure.

27. 9.11 The question of which of these two structures is more important, that is, the one in which the S atom obeys the octet rule but bears more formal charges or the one in which the S atom expands its octet, has been the subject of some debate among chemists. In many cases, only elaborate quantum mechanical calculations can provide a clearer answer. At this stage of learning, you should realize that both representations are valid Lewis structures and you should be able to draw both types of structures. One helpful rule is that in trying to minimize formal charges by expanding the central atom’s octet, only add enough double bonds to make the formal charge on the central atom zero.

28. 9.11 Thus, the following structure would give formal charges on S(−2) and O(0) that are inconsistent with the electronegativities of these elements and should therefore not be included to represent the ion.
