"There's a button missing on your jacket."
In U.S. English this would be correct, but I would be more likely to say
"There's a button missing from your jacket."

Yes, I know it's a multiple choice question, but I can't resist giving other alternatives.
"Your jacket is missing a button."
"Your jacket has a missing button." ("HAS a MISSING button" is seemingly illogical but nevertheless natural and correct).
"You have a jacket button missing."
"You've lost a jacket button."
