question
For a molecule of fluorous acid, the atoms are arranged as HOFO. (Note: In this oxyacid, the placement of fluorine is an exception to the rule of putting the more electronegative atom in a terminal position.) What is the formal charge on each of the atoms? Enter the formal charges in the same order as the atoms are listed. FC=(valence e? infree atom)?12(bonding e?shown)?(nonbonding e?shown)
