Question
Chapter 10, Problem 6SAQ
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Amongst the given options, the compound which has two or more resonance structures is to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
In Lewis structure, molecules are represented with two structures. These two structures have the same skeletal structure. In skeletal structure, the atoms are in the same relative positions only the distribution of electron dots differs between them. These structures are called resonance structure. In resonance structures, double headed arrow is used which indicates that these are contributing resonance structures.
