a central atom with two lone pairs and three bonds to other atoms
An atom in a molecule has four bonds to other atoms and two lone pairs. What kind of hybrid orbitals do you expect for this atom?
5. The anion (S3N3] is a ring with alternating sulfur and nitrogen atoms. Complete the templates below by adding lone pairs and bonds to show the three BEST resonance structures for [S3N3] . Show all lone pairs of electrons as pairs of dots and all additional bonds as lines. Write any non-zero formal charges on the appropriate atoms. DH-01-10
