Question
Chapter 11, Problem 78AE
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The correct Lewis structure of
Lewis structure:
The representation of valence shell electrons around the atom is known as Lewis structure or Lewis dot structure. Electrons are represented as a dot in Lewis structures, a single dot represents unpaired electron and paired of dots represents paired electrons.

What are the Lewis structures for each of these; NO2+, NO2-, N2O, N2O5, N2O3?
Explain why CH4 is one of the most common molecules found in nature. Are the bonds between the atoms ionic or covalent? What is the difference between an ionic bond and a covalent bond?
What possible error(s) exist in the Lewis structure (assume we are trying to represent the best
possible Lewis structure for the NO₂S ion knowing N is the central atom in this polyatomic ion)?
[:ö==S:
N=
CO
:O:
The best structure would have double bond and two lone pairs on each oxygen atom and a single bond with
three lone pairs on the sulfur.
There are no errors. This is the best possible structure.
The Lewis structure above does not minimize formal charges, thus is the not the best possible structure.
The nitrogen atom has an expanded octet, and this structure is impossible.
The Lewis structure contains the wrong number of electrons, thus this structure is impossible.
