A Lewis electron-dot diagram for ozone, \(\text{O}_3\).
A Lewis electron-dot diagram for ozone, \(\text{O}_3\).
A Lewis electron-dot diagram representing one resonance contributor of an ozone molecule, \(\text{O}_3\), is shown above. When both equivalent resonance contributors to the resonance hybrid are taken into account, what is the average formal charge on each terminal oxygen atom?
