If you include structures in which sulfur has an expanded octet and exclude structures with triple bonds, how many resonance structures can be drawn for sulfur trioxide, SO3.
The given question is based on resonating structures of and . The stability of resonating structures is based on various factors which are mentioned in the solution.
When one single structure of a species is not able to explain the bonding and other characteristic properties then resonance comes into picture. It is the delocalization of loosely bound electrons (Pi electrons) with in the given Lewis structure. The structures representing this delocalization is termed as resonating structures.
The formal charge on each atom is calculated and shown as follows:
The provided structures are as follows:
Among these structures only 1 and 4 are valid.
The resonating structures having only double bonds are as follows:
A)When only one double bond is present
B)When two double bonds are present
C)When three double bonds are present
The valid and invalid structures are shown below:
The number of possible structures for are 7.

Draw all resonance structures for the sulfur trioxide molecule, S03 Explicitly draw all H atoms. Include all valence lone pairs in your answer Do not include overall ion charges or formal charges in your drawing Do not draw double bonds to oxygen unless they are needed for the central atom to obey the octet rule. Draw one structure per sketcher. Add additional sketchers using the drop-down menu in the bottom right corner. · Separate resonance structures using the symbol from...

(a) Describe the molecule xenon trioxide, XeO3, using four possible lewis structures, one each with zero, one, two, or three Xe--O double bonds (b) Do any of these resonance structures satisfy the octet rule for every atom in the molecule? (c) Do any of the four lewis structures have multiple resonance structures? If so, how many resonance structures do you find? (d) Which of the lewis structures in (a) yields the most favorable formal charges for the molecule?
CHEM 1300 Fall 2019 Hi, Linta 15 (Tor credit) is Structures Theory - Copy For consider the two Lewis structures for the suite on SO O- 2.0-900 2:0-5-00 OD Normal octet Reduced Formal Charges in the normal octet structure, sulfur has a #2 formal charge and all four oxygen atoms have a -1 formal charge in the Lewis structure with the formal charges reduced, uur seems to have 12 electrons. A number of different resonance structures of this type can...
How many equivalent resonance structures can be drawn for the molecule of SO, WITHOUT having to violate the octet rule on the sulfur atom? a. 5 b. 2 c. 1 d. 4 1. Define, explain, and provide an example of isomers.
5. Draw the number of resonance structures indicated, your structures must fulfill the octet rule. This exercise serves to develop a sense of which Lewis Structures are reasonable so think whether what you are proposing makes sense. Assign formal charges and determine which structure is more likely, major contributor. Draw a box around this structure. Note: it is possible to have more than one major contributor. In that case, indicate these equivalent structures by drawing a box around all of...
How many equivalent resonance structures can be drawn for NO2F (N is the central atom) where all atoms satisfy the octet rule?
Which statements about IS3+ ion is NOT true. A. The molecule has non-polar bonds and is a non-polar molecule. B. The molecule has trigonal planar geometry. C. The central atom does form double or triple bonds. D. There are two ore more resonance structures for the molecule E. The central atoms Violates the octet rule by accepting more than an octet of electrons.
