Lewis Structures, Formal Charge, and Resonance: N2O, SO2, CO, and Other Molecules, Study notes of Chemistry

Instructions for drawing lewis structures and determining formal charges for various molecules, including n2o, so2, and co. It also covers the assignment of formal charges to ions and the identification of resonance structures. Students are encouraged to fill in missing lone pairs and suggest better resonance structures.
