Answer 2

Answer:

The Carbonate (CO2−3) Ion. Like ozone, the electronic structure of the carbonate ion cannot be described by a single Lewis electron structure. Unlike O3, though, the actual structure of CO32− is an average of three resonance structures. ... This gives 4 + (3 × 6) + 2 = 24 valence electrons.
