So if we went through and drew out our Lewis structure following each of our steps, what we would get is this as our Lewis structure here, and we could figure out all of the formal charges.

那么如果我们按照流程,经过所有的步骤来画路易斯结构，我们会得到这样的路易斯结构，然后我们可以算出所有的形式电荷。

But I want you to tell me in terms of thinking about formal charge, which Lewis structure would you predict to be the most stable?

但我想让大家告诉我,从形式电荷的角度考虑，你会预测哪一个路易斯结构是最稳定的？

OK, now, this is a more formal look at that structure.

对，这是一个更规范的结构。

So in our first structure, we would find for the nitrogen we have a formal charge 5 minus 4 minus 2, because we're starting with 5 valence electrons, so that is a formal charge of minus 1.

那么在我们的第一个结构中，我们发现氮的形式电荷量是五减去四4,再减去二，因为我们开始有五个价电子，因此它的形式电荷量是负一。

If we look at our last structure here where we have nitrogen the middle, we can also figure out all those formal charges, and in this case we have plus 1 on the nitrogen, we have minus 2 on the carbon, and then we end up with a 0 on the sulfur there.

如果我们来看看最后一个结构,在中间的原子是氮，我们同样可以计算出所有的形式电荷，而在这种情况下，氮为正一，碳为负二，而最后硫为零。

But we could, for example, look at a case where we have several different structures that look pretty good, and the one we want to determine as being the lowest energy structure is the one in which the absolute values of the formal charges are going to be lower, so essentially that they have less charge separation.

但是我们可能，比如，遇到一种情况,有好几个候选的路易斯结构看起来都挺好的，这时候我们就需要,通过比较哪个形式电荷的绝对值更低,来决定哪个结构的能量更低，本质上这个结构中分开的电荷更少。
