To write the resonance structures of the acetate ion (CH₃COO⁻) and show the movement of electrons using curved arrows, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Draw the Lewis Structure of Acetate Ion The acetate ion consists of a methyl group (CH₃) attached to a carbonyl group (C=O) and an oxygen atom with a negative charge. The Lewis structure can be drawn as follows: 1. **Draw the Carbon Backbone**: Start with the carbon atom (C) connected to the methyl group (CH₃) on one side and the carbonyl group (C=O) on the other side. 2. **Add the Oxygen Atoms**: One oxygen atom is double-bonded to the carbon (C=O), and the other oxygen atom is single-bonded to the same carbon and carries a negative charge (O⁻). 3. **Complete the Structure**: Ensure that all atoms have complete octets where applicable. ...
