Chapter 6, Problem 6.68QP

Most organic acids can be represented as RCOOH, where COOH is the carboxyl group and R is the rest of the molecule. [For example, R is CH3 in acetic acid (CH3COOH).] (a) Draw a Lewis structure for the carboxyl group, (b) Upon ionization, the carboxyl group is converted to the carboxylate group (COO). Draw resonance structures for the carboxylate group.

Students have asked these similar questions
(a) Describe the molecule xenon trioxide, XeO3, using four possible Lewis structures, one each with zero, one, two, or three Xe—O double bonds. (b) Do any of these resonance structures satisfy the octet rule for every atom in the molecule? (c) Do any of the four Lewis structures have multiple resonance structures? If so, how many resonance structures do you find? (d) Which of the Lewis structures in (a) yields the most favorable formal charges for the molecule?  
The C¬O bond length in carbon monoxide, CO, is 1.13 Å, whereas the C¬Obond length in CO2 is 1.24 Å. Without drawing a Lewis structure, do you think thatCO contains a single, double, or triple bond?
We can define average bond enthalpies and bond lengthsfor ionic bonds, just like we have for covalent bonds. Whichionic bond is predicted to have the smaller bond enthalpy,Li—F or Cs—F?
