  2. Carbonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbonate

    The Lewis structure of the carbonate ion has two (long) single bonds to negative oxygen atoms, and one short double bond to a neutral oxygen atom. This structure is incompatible with the observed symmetry of the ion, which implies that the three bonds are the same length and that the three oxygen atoms are equivalent.

  3. Lewis structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_structure

    Lewis structure of a water molecule. Lewis structures – also called Lewis dot formulas, Lewis dot structures, electron dot structures, or Lewis electron dot structures (LEDs) – are diagrams that show the bonding between atoms of a molecule, as well as the lone pairs of electrons that may exist in the molecule.

  4. Resonance (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resonance_(chemistry)

    Contributing structures of the carbonate ion. In chemistry, resonance, also called mesomerism, is a way of describing bonding in certain molecules or polyatomic ions by the combination of several contributing structures (or forms, [1] also variously known as resonance structures or canonical structures) into a resonance hybrid (or hybrid structure) in valence bond theory.

  5. Carbon trioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_trioxide

    Carbon trioxide (CO 3) is an unstable oxide of carbon (an oxocarbon).The possible isomers of carbon trioxide include ones with molecular symmetry point groups C s, D 3h, and C 2v.

  6. Transition metal carbonate and bicarbonate complexes

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transition_metal_carbonate...

    Structure for (Cp 2 Ti) 2 CO 3. [3] Structure of [Ru 2 (CO 3) 4 Cl 2] 5+. [4] Carbonate is a pseudohalide ligand. With a saturated pi-system, it has no pi-acceptor properties. With multiple electronegative elements, it is not strongly basic. The latter is consistent with the pK a ’s of carbonic acid: pK 1 = 6.77 and pK 2 = 9.93.

  7. Formal charge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formal_charge

    Formal charges in ozone and the nitrate anion. In chemistry, a formal charge (F.C. or q*), in the covalent view of chemical bonding, is the hypothetical charge assigned to an atom in a molecule, assuming that electrons in all chemical bonds are shared equally between atoms, regardless of relative electronegativity.

  8. Brønsted–Lowry acid–base theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brønsted–Lowry_acid...

    The Lewis theory is based on electronic structure. A Lewis base is a compound that can give an electron pair to a Lewis acid, a compound that can accept an electron pair. [14] [15] Lewis's proposal explains the Brønsted–Lowry classification using electronic structure. + + +

  9. Basic copper carbonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_copper_carbonate

    Basic copper carbonate is a chemical compound, more properly called copper(II) carbonate hydroxide.It can be classified as a coordination polymer or a salt.It consists of copper(II) bonded to carbonate and hydroxide with formula Cu 2 (CO 3)(OH) 2.
