The compound acetone has two resonance structures which both represent a possible correct Lewis structure of the compounds (only one is shown below). Answer the following question regarding the structural depiction of Acetone. What are the formal charges (if any) of the oxygen and "carbonyl" (center in this case) carbon in this resonance structure? All of the hydrogens and lone pairs of electrons are drawn in. ○ 0=+1;C=-1 OO=0C=0 ○ 0--1; C = +1 00--1;C=0 :Ö: H H I.
