Concept explainers
Interpretation:
All valid resonance structures or diazomethane are to be drawn. It is to be determined which of these resonance structures contribute more to the resonance hybrid.
Concept introduction:
Resonance hybrid is the weighted average of all the resonance structures of a molecule or ion. The contribution of different resonance structures is not equal. More stable structures contribute more to the hybrid than less stable structures. Stability of a resonance structure depends on the number of bonds between each pair of atoms as well as the presence of any formal charge. Higher the total bond energy of a structure, more stable it is. A structure with no formal charges is most stable. As the number of atoms with formal charges increases, the stability of the structure decreases.

- please answer neatly and clear and answer super super fast i really need it beofre the end of today its really important and urgent please try to answer everything please try to draw everything can you please please draw the sigma bond for H2O2 draw the sigma bond and pi bond for HCN draw the sigma bond and pi bond for N2Oarrow_forwardHiii... I have trouble to anwer resonance question .. can i get the anwer scheme ti this question and can you explain me in details step by step so that i can understand this topic better. Thank youu!arrow_forwardThe following model is a representation of aspartame, C14H18N2O5, known commercially under many names, including NutraSweet. Only the connections between atoms are shown; multiple bonds are not indicated.
