Chemistry May 24, 2021

Like several other bonds, carbon-oxygen bonds have lengths and strengths that depend on the bond order. Draw Lewis structures for the following species and arrange them in order of increasing carbon-oxygen bond length. Then arrange the species by increasing carbon-oxygen bond strength.

(a) Co draw structure

(b) CO3 (label the formal charges, and only draw one resonance structure.)

(d) CH40

(e) HCO3-(H attached to O)
