I Would like to have the structure of "covalent coordinate" molecules 
explained in terms of either molecular orbitals or hybridizations. 
Specifically, I am interested in the sulfate ion and carbond monoxide. I 
am not interested in hearing terms like "filling the valence shell" or " 
becoming like a noble gas". Thanks
