where did 7 and 4 came from when you divided 6-7 for oxygen and 6-4 for sulfur? I am confused?

@lovaurl Watch the formal charge lesson very carefully!

I love your enthusiasm; your enthusiasm makes your video very interesting and makes me love chemistry as much as you do

[motisimo]

your ridiculously good at explaining chem.

Nice Work

What the fudge!!!!! That is exactly what did. I changed the lewis dot structure so that there's two double bonds from the original four single, and my chem teacher marked me wrong!!!!!!

Hey, it's been a while since Honors CHem since i'm in AP right now, but when you take away 2 pairs of lone electrons off of the oxygens and give it to Sulfur, making double bonds, aren't you technically violating the Octet rule?

I learned more from you then I do from my AP Chem teacher.
