Calculate the formal charge on (i) S in HSO_(4)^(-)ion (ii) Cl in HClO_(4) |
Answer» Solution : (i) Lewis STRUCTURE of ` HSO_(4)^(-)` ion is  Applying the formula for calculation of formal charge formal charge on S ATOM = ` 6- 0 - (1)/(2) (8) = 6 - 4 = + 2 ` (ii) Lewis structure of ` HClO_(4)` is  Formal charge on ` CL = 7 - 0 - (1)/(2) (8)= + 3 ` |
