Question

Based on their Lewis structures, rank the C—O bond lengths in CO, CO_{2,} and CO_{3}^{2−} from longest to shortest.

Accepted Answer

CO_{3}^{2−} \u003e CO_{2} \u003e CO

Answer

CO_{3}^{2−} \u003e CO \u003e CO_{2}

Answer

CO_{2} \u003e CO_{3}^{2−} \u003e CO

Answer

CO_{2} \u003e CO \u003e CO_{3}^{2−}

Based on their Lewis structures, rank the C—O bond lengths in CO, CO2, and CO32− from longest to shortest.
