Write the resonance structure of nitrous oxide.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To write the resonance structures of nitrous oxide (N₂O), we need to follow a systematic approach. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Determine the Lewis Structure of N₂O - **Count the total valence electrons**: Nitrogen (N) has 5 valence electrons, and Oxygen (O) has 6 valence electrons. For N₂O, the total is: \[ 2 \times 5 + 6 = 16 \text{ valence electrons} \] ...
