Chemistry 4-5-18 Resonance & Polyatomic Ions

CHEMISTRY: Wow! Lewis structures, multiple bonds, and now resonance and polyatomic ions! That’s a lot you’ve conquered in the last couple of days!

Here’s some good advice – don’t take shortcuts. Learn the proper steps on the easier molecules, and you’ll be able to do the hard ones. And if it’s still all Greek to you, don’t worry! Keep practicing and you’ll get it, I promise!! Don’t forget to count electrons and don’t forget CONS!
