【】What is the carbonate formula?

The formula for carbonate is CO₃2- .
The charge of carbonate polyatomic ion is -2.


Explanation:


Today I will show you the formula for carbonate in this blog post.


Carbonate is a polyatomic ion.It has -2 charge.In carbonate,we get one carbon and three oxygens.

So the formula for carbonate is CO₃2-

formula for carbonate

Formula for Carbonate




In carbonate ion,the oxidation number of carbon  is +4 and the oxidation number of O is -2.The net  charge of carbonate is -2.


In carbonate,one oxygen is bonded to carbon with double bond and two other oxygens are bonded to carbon with single bond.So Structural formula for carbonate is given below:

Structural formula for carbonate



By using carbonate anion formula CO₃2-

,we get the formula for the following compounds.:

1)Ferric carbonate formula


              Fe₂(CO₃)₃




2)Carbonic acid formula

                  H₂CO₃


3)Zinc carbonate formula

                ZnCO₃


4)Lead carbonate formula

        PbCO₃



5)Sodium carbonate formula

      Na₂CO₃



6)Calcium carbonate formula


     CaCO₃


7)Aluminum carbonate formula

     Al₂(CO₃)₃


8)Nickel carbonate formula


      NiCO₃
