The Correct order of increasing bond length of C - H, C-O, C - C and C = C is
C - C < C=C < C - O < C - H
C - O < C - H < C - C < C = C
C - H < C - O < C - C < C= C
C - H < C = C < C - O < C - C
Which of the following structures is the most preferred and hence of lowest energy of SO3 ?
D.
Formal charges help in the selection of the lowest energy structure from a number of possible energy structure from a number of possible Lewis structures for a given species. Generally, the lowest energy structure is the one with the smallest formal charges on the atoms.
Formal charge on an atom: = total number of valence electrons- non - bonding electrons - 1/2 x bonding electrons.
For lewis structure of SO3
