AI Generated Solution

To solve the question of writing the resonance structures for the acetate ion (CH₃COO⁻) and the allyl cation (CH₃CH=CH₂⁺), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Draw the Lewis structure of the acetate ion (CH₃COO⁻) 1. **Count the total valence electrons**: - Carbon (C) has 4 valence electrons, Oxygen (O) has 6, and Hydrogen (H) has 1. - For CH₃COO⁻: - 2 Carbons = 2 × 4 = 8 ...
