A) two carbon, oxygen double bond
B) two carbon, oxygen single bond
C) one carbon, oxygen single bond and one carbon, oxygen double bond
D) none of the above
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
Key Idea: Draw line structure of acetate ion to find correct answer. \[C{{H}_{3}}-\overset{\begin{smallmatrix} O \\ || \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C}}\,-{{O}^{-}}\] \[\therefore \] Acetate ion has one carbon, oxygen single bond and one carbon and oxygen double bond. \[\therefore \] Answer [c] is correct.
