Question: (a) Describe the molecule xenon trioxide, XeO3, using four possible Lewis structures, one each with zero, one, two, or three Xe-O double bonds.
(b) Do any of these resonance structures satisfy the octet rule for every atom in the molecule?
(c) Do any of the four Lewis structures have multiple resonance structures? If so, how many resonance structures do you find?
(d) Which of the Lewis structures in (a) yields the most favorable formal charges for the molecule?
