So the formal charge on H3C: is (Valence Electrons) - (Electrons in Lone Pairs) - (# of bonds) = 4 - 2 - 3 = -1 This is only true for CH3 when the C has a full lone pair to itself. CH3, the collection of four atoms, can exist together in the three ways shown in the pi...
Calculate the formal charge of oxygen in CH3-O-B-Cl2. What is the difference between a formal charge and oxidation states? How do you calculate them, and which one determines the overall charge of the molecule? Provide an expression for calculating the charge on an ion. ...
How to calculate formal charge from Lewis structure Lewis Structures: Lewis structures are pictoral diagrams of molecules used to demonstrate the arrangement of covalent bonds between atoms. They are determined by trying to satisfy the octet of each atom whilst ensuring that the total number of vale...
