Chapter 7, Problem 7.14P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The arrangement of atoms in NOCl has to be drawn using the formal charges.

Concept Introduction:

Formal charge (F.C):  The charges that assigned to each atom in a molecule or ion by a set of arbitrary rules and don not actually represent the actual charges on the atoms are called as formal charges.

The formal charge is calculated using the formula,

  F.C=Valenceelectrons-Noofnon-bondingelectrons-Noofbondingelectrons2

The Lewis structure with zero formal charge or least separated formal charges is the preferred structure of the molecule.
