Question
Chapter 6.5, Problem 7PPA
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The resonance structure of nitrate ion should be found.
Concept Introduction:
- Sometimes the
chemical bonding of a molecule cannot be represented using a single Lewis structure. In these cases, the chemical bonding are described by delocalization of electrons and is known as resonance. - In some molecules, there is possibility of more than one Lewis structure where all the structures are equally acceptable. One of the acceptable Lewis structures of these molecules is called resonance structure. All the possible resonance structures are imaginary whereas the resonance hybrid is real.
- These structures will differ only in the arrangement of the electrons not in the relative position of the atomic nuclei.
- While drawing resonance structure of a molecule some rules should be followed where the position, over whole charge and chemical framework remains intact. Also only π and nonbonding electron has been moved in all the three resonance structures
To draw: The resonance structure of nitrate ion

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.

Write all resonance structures for NCO− ion. Use formal charges to predict the most stable one (i.e. the one that has the lowest energy configuration) and the least stable. Briefly explain.
Based on the atom connectivity shown bellow,evaluate the four resonance structure for the thiosulfate ion S2O3 ^2-.
Use curved arrows to indicate how you get from one resonance structure to another. Assign formal changes to all atoms and determine which of these resonance structure is the most stable based on a formal charge analysis
Explain your answer thoroughly. Look at the picture.
