1.	How does the concept of formal charge related to the stability of ion/molecule?
Answer» ecome formally charged on the basis of their relative stability,In case of non-metals, (which is from the right-hand side of the Periodic Table), we have high NUCLEAR charge and they tend to be OXIDIZED, i.e. they accept electrons to form anions In case of metals the electron rich or POWERFUL and they tend to be reduced and form CATIONS The basic chemistry involves the formation of stable salt with the COMBINATION positive and negative ions.
