Draw one valid lewis structure (including all lone pair electrons and any formal charges) for ch3no2. Assume the atoms are arran
ged as shown below.
1 answer:
The lewis structure is drawn as
a) we first count the total number of valence electrons in the compound
b) then we give one pair of electrons in between each pair of bonded atoms
c) rest of the electrons are arranged around the side atoms to fullfill their octet
d) the electrons are rearranged to complete octet of maximum number of atoms
so the structure will be:

The symbol is for phosphorus having atomic number 15. That means it has
in its neutral state.
The given symbol has a -3 charge that means it has gained 3 electrons so, the number of electrons in the
is:
. The number of protons will remain same that is the number of protons = 15.
So, the ion has
that gives
charge on the
ion.
So, the answer is .
