Question
Chapter 8.10, Problem 1PPB
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The resonance structures of thiocyanate ion
Concept introduction:
For many molecules, it is impossible to explain all properties by a single Lewis structure. In such cases, more than one Lewis structures are drawn to explain the properties. Such structures of a compound are called resonating structures and the phenomenon is called resonance.
Due to their attraction towards electrons, the ions and the molecules acquire some charge which is called formal charge.
Formal charge is given by:
Total number of valence electrons in a free
