उत्तर
Structure of hydronium ion: Hydronium ions (H3O+) are formed when a hydrogen ion released from acid combines with water molecules.
Oxygen atom in water molecule attains an octet by forming two single covalent bonds with two hydrogen atoms but it still contains two lone pairs of electrons.
H3O+ is formed when the oxygen atom in water molecule donates a lone pair of electrons to a hydrogen ion thus establishing a coordinate bond between the oxygen atom and the hydrogen ion.
