* Covalent Bonds: Carbon and oxygen share electrons to form the bonds.
* Polar: Oxygen is more electronegative than carbon, meaning it attracts the shared electrons more strongly. This creates a slight negative charge on the oxygen atoms and a slight positive charge on the carbon atom.
* Two Bonds: There are two double bonds between the carbon atom and each oxygen atom.
This means that each oxygen atom is connected to the carbon atom by a double bond, and each double bond is polar.
