Answer:
The Carbonate (CO2−3) Ion
Like ozone, the electronic structure of the carbonate ion cannot be described by a single Lewis electron structure. ... Carbon has 4 valence electrons, each oxygen has 6 valence electrons, and there are 2 more for the −2 charge. This gives 4 + (3 × 6) + 2 = 24 valence electrons.
