Write the resonance structure of NO(2)^(...

Write the resonance structure of `NO_(2)^(Θ)` (nitrite) and `NO_(3)^(Θ)` (nitrate ion) .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

In the resonating structures, dashed line bonds are used to indicate double or triple bond character between the bonded atoms. These partial multiple bonds represent the extended pi bond overlap In each resonance contributing structures, the negative charge resides on a different `O` atom But in the hybrid structures, each `O` atom has a fractional negative charge
