So4 Lewis Structure. Sulfur has 6 valence electrons. It was a bitof work but we have the best structure here.
Sulfur make six bonds in this lewis structure. Lewis structure of so 4 2 there are two s o bonds and two s o bonds in sulfate ion lewis structure. And that is the lewis structure for so4 sep 01 with lewis dot diagrams you only dot in the outer electron shell 8 dots so4 has 8 dots around it each in sets of 2 s like colons and then o s all around the s next to the dots then finish it of by putting 6 more dots around each o oxygen status.
Since it s anion there s one last thing we need to do.
And these 2 valence electrons up here we need to add those as well. Try to draw the so 4 2 lewis structure before watching the video. For more help watch this general tutorial on drawing lewis structures for compounds like the sulfate ion. Sep 01 with lewis dot diagrams you only dot in the outer electron shell 8 dots so4 has 8 dots around it each in sets of 2 s like colons and then o s all around the s next to the dots then finish it of by putting 6 more dots around each o oxygen status.
