Chemistry Question on Chemical bonding and molecular structure

What is wrong about CO32− ion?CO_3^{2-} \, ion ?

A

It has planar structure

B

It has one coordinate bond.

C

It has three resonating structures.

D

Hydrolysis of CO32−CO_3^{2-} ion gives basic solution.

Answer

It has one coordinate bond.

Explanation

Solution

Resonating structures of CO32−ion are:CO_3^{2-}ion \, are :
∴  \therefore \, \, There is no coordinate bond in CO32−CO_3^{2-}
