In the lewis structure of the iodate ion, io3–, that satisfies the octet rule, the formal charge on the central iodine atom is

Answer :  The formal charge on the central iodine atom is, Zero (0).

Explanation :

Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and it also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.

In the Lewis-dot structure the valance electrons are shown by 'dot'.

The given molecule is,

As we know that iodine has '7' valence electrons and oxygen has '6' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in = 7 + 3(6) + 1 = 26

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 10 number of bonding electrons and 16 number of non-bonding electrons.

Now we have to determine the formal charge on the central iodine atom.

Formula for formal charge :

Hence, the Lewis-dot structure of is shown below.

is there multiple choice answers?

air

in a tire you fill a tire with air

then a couple days later you check the air pressure in the tire
