In the Lewis structure of fulminate ion, a negati.pdf

In the Lewis structure of fulminate ion, a negative formal charge is on carbon and a
positive formal charge is on nitrogen. This is the opposite of what one would expect from a
consideration of electronegativities and energetically unfavorable. This is why the fulminate ion
is thermodynamically unstable.
