Draw the lewis structure (including resonance structures) for the acetate ion (ch3coo−). for each resonance structure, assign formal charges to all atoms that have formal charge.

Explanation:

Lewis structure : These are the electron dot structure which shows the bonding between the atoms of the molecule and lone pairs of electron(if present on an atom)

Resonance structures : These are the structure which shows the delocalizing of electrons in a molecule. When the molecule have more than one Lewis structure those structure are known as resonance structure.

Formal charge of ,

V= valence electron around an atom

B = number of bonding electrons

N = number of non bonding electrons

Formal charge of structure(I)

Formal charge of structure(II)

hope this

explanation:

covalent bonds

consist of pairs of electrons shared by two atoms, and bind the atoms to fixed orientation and requre high energies to break them

ionic bonds

when two atoms differ considerably in their electronegativity, then one of the atoms will lose its electron to the other atom. this results in a positively charged ion(cation) and a negatively charged ion (anion)
