Which of the following is (are) valid Lewis structure(s) for the anion (HCONCH₃)⁻?

A. ![Structure A: HCONCH₃](https://example.com/structureA)
B. ![Structure B: HCONCH₃](https://example.com/structureB)
C. ![Structure C: HCONCH₃](https://example.com/structureC)
D. Both A and B
E. A, B, and C

- ☐ A
- ☐ B
- ☐ C
- ☐ D
- ☐ E

### Explanation of Graphs/Diagrams:

#### Structure A
- The molecule consists of a central carbon (C) atom double-bonded to an oxygen (O) atom, single-bonded to a nitrogen (N) atom, which in turn is bonded to three hydrogen (H) atoms.
- The oxygen (O) atom has two lone pairs of electrons.
- The nitrogen (N) atom has one lone pair of electrons.

#### Structure B
- The molecule consists of a central carbon (C) atom single-bonded to an oxygen (O) atom, single-bonded to a nitrogen (N) atom, which in turn is bonded to three hydrogen (H) atoms.
- The oxygen (O) atom has three lone pairs of electrons.
- The nitrogen (N) atom has one lone pair of electrons.

#### Structure C
- The molecule consists of a central carbon (C) atom single-bonded to an oxygen (O) atom, which in turn is single-bonded to a hydrogen (H) atom. The carbon (C) atom is also bonded to a nitrogen (N) atom, which in turn is bonded to three hydrogen (H) atoms.
- The oxygen (O) atom has three lone pairs of electrons.
- The nitrogen (N) atom has one lone pair of electrons.
