Question

calculate the formal charge of each atom on O3 molecule​

Answer 1

Answer:

0 , +1 , -1

Explanation:

formal charge =valence electrons-non bonded electrons-(bonded electrons/2)

FROM THE STRUCTURE OF $O_{3}$,

FOR FIRST ATOM= 6-4-4/2=6-4-2=0

FOR SECOND ATOM = 6 - 2 - 6/2 = 6-2-3=1

FOR THORD ATOM = 6- 6 -2/2=6-6-1 = -1
