Based on formal charge considerations, which of the following would likely be the correct arrangement of atoms in hypochlorous acid: HOCl or OClH?
Thus, in HOCl; the formal charge on $\mathrm{O}$ atom is $[-1],$ Clatom is $[+1]$ and $\mathrm{H}$ atom is $[0]$ since, the Lewis structure with least formal charge is most stable therefore, the structure ofHOCl with formal charge of 0 is the stable structure as compared to OClH which with $-1$ and $+1$ formal charge.

so to determine which you have pop helper Klores ass a would be a correct cracked arrangement. We want cock away the homo charge. But your equals Thio. Ah, violent violence like phones have tracked. Bonded like Jones subtract non about it. So the most it stable one b equals two zero, which is more stable. Now we'll know. So the first arranged like this and the second wind the rain. You like this? Wait. First we calculate the first store. Go ahead. First song for that harridan there has, uh, wine violent and one bonnet zero knob on the sorts of zero for the four more chucks oxygen. Ah, there have Ah, six. Uh, violence. Electrons have to bone it for number on it. Every zero chlorine. You got seven. And ah, So the head and got one bone it and six number on it. So I got zero. So let's look at the So this is the first positive second pop hypotheses. Yeah, policies would be for so the chlorine will be the central at him. Ah, so far, we start with a handwritten Well, if Harry gin in the form. So it's had Tony has wine like Charles. And if not, monitor zero buying. This should be one. So it's zero, but you're good, but chlorine has seven bottoms. Uh, my instructions. Well, I got to bone, and that's fallen on vomit. What? You? Well, because one. Well, it's not good. The oxygen gets sinks and also got six number on it. Uh, yeah. Zero Bowman. Yeah. Thanks. Not vomit to form a stable. Yes. Have a one bonnet. Yeah, it takes about it Which? Well, because Manus one, uh, which is not so Compare this to which is this is more stable than this one. So the crack one would be its sail out and you'll see how, because it's the most stable.
