**Classify the following substituents according to whether they are electron donors or electron acceptors relative to hydrogen by the resonance and the inductive mechanisms.**

1. **Carboethoxy or Ethoxycarbonyl (—C(=O)OCH₂CH₃)**  
   - *Inductive effect*: [Dropdown for selection]  
   - *Resonance effect*: [Dropdown for selection]  

2. **Ammonium (—NH₃⁺)**  
   - *Inductive effect*: [Dropdown for selection]  
   - *Resonance effect*: [Dropdown for selection]

3. **Nitro (—NO₂⁺)**  
   - *Inductive effect*: [Dropdown for selection]  
   - *Resonance effect*: [Dropdown for selection]

**Explanation of Elements:**

- **Inductive Effect**: This is the effect of the electron-withdrawing or electron-releasing nature of the substituent through sigma bonds. It is often influenced by the electronegativity of atoms.

- **Resonance Effect**: This involves the delocalization of electrons in a molecule, allowing a substituent to donate or withdraw electron density through pi bonds.

*[Each example provides two dropdown menus for users to classify the electron-donating or accepting behavior of the substituents in terms of both their inductive and resonance effects.]*
