To determine the formal charges on the three oxygen atoms in the ozone (O₃) molecule, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the structure of O₃ Ozone (O₃) consists of three oxygen atoms. The structure can be represented as: - One oxygen atom is double bonded to another oxygen atom, which is then single bonded to a third oxygen atom. - The central oxygen atom (the one with the double bond) has one lone pair of electrons. - The terminal oxygen atoms have lone pairs as well. ...
