प्रश्न
Explain why \[\ce{CO^{2–}3}\] ion cannot be represented by a single Lewis structure. How can it be best represented?
उत्तर
The carbonate ion \[\ce{CO^{2–}3}\] can be best represented by its resonating structures. The carbonate ion cannot be represented by a single Lewis structure because the three carbon-oxygen bond lengths are the same. This cannot be shown by a single Lewis structure. For showing the similar lengths of all the carbon to oxygen bonds three hybrid structures are constructed which are in resonance with each other.
