Most organic acids can be represented as RCOOH, in which COOH is the carboxyl group and R is the rest of the molecule. (For example, R is CH3 in acetic acid, CH3COOH.) (a) Draw the Lewis structure of acetic acid. draw structure ... (b) Upon ionization, the carboxyl group is converted to the carboxylate group, COO−. Draw the Lewis structure for one of the two resonance structures of the acetate anion. (The acetate anion is the ionized form of acetic acid). draw structure ...

Answer:

See explaination

Explanation:

Lewis structures, which is also called electron-dot structures or electron-dot diagrams, are diagrams that show the bonding between atoms of a molecule, and the lone pairs of electrons that may exist in the molecule. A Lewis structure can be drawn for any covalently-bonded molecule, as well as coordination compounds.

Check attachment for the structures.
