In this case, you have five electron domains around the central atom(1 pair and 4 bonds). This means that the general shape is going to be a trigonal planar with a line going through the middle. This would normally form a trigonal bipyrimid. But, one of these domains is a lone pair, so remove a bond from the trigonal plane. This gives you a "V" shape with a line going through the vertex, making a see-saw shape.
Since only two electrons can carry 1s, the next 2 electrons for sulfur go into the orbital 2s. In the 2p orbital, the next six electrons will go in. Up to six electrons can be retained by the p orbital. ... The sulfur electron configuration would therefore be 1s22s22p63s23p4
Carbon can form four covalent bonds.
Hydrogen can form one covalent bond.
Nitrogen can form three covalent bonds.
Oxygen can form two covalent bonds.
What helps me to balance equations is to list the elements i have on each side of the equation, and use tally marks to see what I have and don't have. Then when I'm done balancing, I tally again to make sure everything matches up.
On the left side, you have 1 Al, and 2 O. On the right side, 1 Al and 3 O.
In order for the equation to balance, you need to place a 2 in front of the AlO on the right side. This would make the Al have 2 atoms and the O have six. On the left side, you need to place a 2 in front of the Al and a 3 in front of the O, making it six. Left side: 2 Al's 6 O's. Right side: 2 Al's and 6 O's. Matches!
