Draw the lewis structure for CO2, H2CO3, HCO3-, and CO3 2-.Rank these in order of increasing attraction to water molecules. Explain your choice. What evidence do you have that supports your predictions

The structures are attached in file.

Hydrogen bonding and intermolecular forces is the reason for ranks allotted.

Explanation:

In determining Lewis structure, we calculate the overall number of valence electrons available for bonding.  Making carbon (the least electronegative atom) the central atom in the structure, we allocate valence electrons until each atom has achieved stability.

In order of decreasing affinity to water molecules:

This is due to the fact that the will accept protons more readily than the bicarbonate ion, . Carbonic acid, will not accept any more protons, hence it is the least attractive to water molecule, even though soluble.

because of all the things that happen around the us, many people get into arguments which sadly could get physical, but we should actually make a change for that.
