Calcuate the formal charge on each atom in `SO_(5)^(2-)` (per -oxosulphate ion) .

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To calculate the formal charge on each atom in the `SO5^(2-)` (per-oxosulfate ion), we will use the formula for formal charge: \[ \text{Formal Charge (Fc)} = V - L - \frac{1}{2}B \] Where: - \( V \) = Number of valence electrons in the free atom - \( L \) = Number of lone pair electrons on the atom in the molecule - \( B \) = Number of bond pair electrons (which is twice the number of bonds formed by the atom) ...
