A step-by-step description on how to calculate formal charges. Formal charges are important because they allow us to predict which Lewis structure is the most likely to exist in the real world.

Often you are given a compound with more than one possible Lewis structure. Often this is the case with elements like Sulfur or Phosphorus which can have more than eight valence electrons. In these cases it is important to calculate formal charges to determine which structure is the best. The structure with formal charges closest to zero will be the best.
