Answer:
Explanation:
The bonds are covalent and the electrons are "shared." So, in the double bond (which, of course, has a different nature to the single bond) one must assume that the electrons are positioned in such away that they are balanced by the protons of the oxygen nuclei. There is therefore no charge on this atom
