Want this question answered?
According to the assignment of formal charges, N should be 0, C is 0 and O is -1. This is the most stable bonding between the atoms as O is the most electronegative hence it should have the -1 formal charge. From this, we know that there is a triple bond between N and C; a single bond between C and O. Hence there is no lone pair around the C atom. From VSEPR, we know that this molecule would then be linear.

Two structures (resonance), one with a triple bond between C and N, and a single bond between O and C, with one lone pair on the N and three lone pairs on the O. Second structure has two double bonds between both the C and N and O and C, with two lone pairs on both N and O. Charge is -1, indicated by brackets. Source: Chemistry, Zumdahl, 3rd Ed.

the spelling of bonds is b-o-n-d-s while the spelling of interactions is i-n-t-e-r-a-c-t-i-o-n-s
J-a-c-k N-i-c-h-o-l-s-o-n
O is Oxygen C is Carbon N is Nitrogen H is Hydogen Is that what you mean?

Unscrambling T-C-N-A-I-O leads me to A-C-T-I-O-N, or action.
it's basically a kind of pickled gherkin and spelt c-o-r-n-i-c-h-o-n.
