Q. The bond order in $ CO_{3}^{2-} $ ion between
ManipalManipal 2000
Solution:
We know that carbonate ion has following resonating structures
Border order $ =\frac{total\text{ }number\text{ }of\text{ }bonds\text{ }between\text{ }atoms}{total\text{ }number\text{ }of\text{ }resonating\text{ }structures} $ $ =\frac{1+1+2}{3}=\frac{4}{3} $ $ =1.33 $
