I uploaded a jpg of the acetate ion Lewis structure to imageshack. Just click the "related link" below and you should see it. Many people draw Lewis Structures with minor variations, but this should give you the basic idea.
C2H3O2- is the acetate ion.
There is one acetate ion in sodium acetate, which has the chemical formula CH3COONa.
no, acetate is a polyatomic ion, not an atom.
The chemical formula for rubidium acetate is RbC2H3O2. It is composed of one rubidium ion (Rb+) and one acetate ion (CH3COO-).
The Lewis structure for ammonium chloride (NH4Cl) consists of an ammonium ion (NH4+) bonded to a chloride ion (Cl-). The nitrogen atom in NH4+ has a lone pair of electrons, forming coordinate covalent bonds with the four hydrogen atoms. The chloride ion has a full octet.
The Lewis structure for a nitric oxide ion (NO) has a nitrogen atom in the center with a single bond to an oxygen atom and a positive charge on the nitrogen atom.
C2H3O2- is the acetate ion.
This is the ion acetate.
There is one acetate ion in sodium acetate, which has the chemical formula CH3COONa.
The hexafluorosilicate ion, SiF6^2-, has a total of 48 valence electrons available for constructing its Lewis structure.
No. The acetate ion has a -1 charge.
The Lewis structure of the cyanide ion (CN-) consists of a carbon atom bonded to a nitrogen atom with a triple bond, and a lone pair of electrons on the nitrogen atom.
no, acetate is a polyatomic ion, not an atom.
The ion acetate is negative.
Yes, acetate ions are water soluble. The acetate ion is the conjugate base of acetic acid, which is a weak acid that readily dissociates in water to release the acetate ion.
It is a lewis base because of its lone pair of electrons that can be "donated". If you draw/look at the lewis structure it is much easier to tell. Especially when the formula is not that of an ion!
The chemical formula for rubidium acetate is RbC2H3O2. It is composed of one rubidium ion (Rb+) and one acetate ion (CH3COO-).
