這個方法在算術上最接近大小不定的消息（請原諒，我將盡量使它簡短）。
So the first approximation is, you can realize that the molar volume of the gas is always much bigger than the volume of the solid or the liquid.
第一個近似是，你會發(fā)現(xiàn)氣體的摩爾體積,遠遠大于固體,和液體的摩爾體積。

It's always a good first approximation, because you need to start somewhere in terms of drawing Lewis structures, but then if you go and figure out the formal charge and you just have lots of charge separation or very high charges, like a plus 2 and a minus 2 and a minus 1 all different places in the atom, what it should tell you is maybe there's a better structure.
它總是一個好的第一近似，因為在畫路易斯結構的時候,你總需要一個起點，但是如果你在算出形式電荷之后,發(fā)現(xiàn)有很多電荷分開了,或者說有很高的電荷，比如有一個正二，一個負二，還有一個負一1,在原子的各個地方，這應該就是在告訴你,或許還有一個更好的路易斯結構。
