Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The ion which is more stable among the given ions is to be stated and the reason for the answer is to be explained.
Concept introduction:
Resonance is the phenomena of the delocalization of pi electrons to give extra stability to the molecule. This extra stability comes from the distribution of the energy of the molecule in the resonance structures formed.
(b)
Interpretation:
The radical that is more stable among the given ions is to be stated and the reason for the answer is to be explained.

- Compound b is more polar than A. Explain. (Hint: draw resonance structures)arrow_forwardDraw the resonance structure of the ff. and identify if aromatic or nonaromatic through Huckel’s rule. note: I need the answer immediately. I will send a good rate right away as well.arrow_forwardExplain why A is aromatic but B is not aromatic (see attached file)arrow_forward
- Draw all resonance structure for each radical compound.arrow_forwardExplain why A is aromatic but B is not aromatic.arrow_forwardSee the Attachment & solev the followings (a) Add curved arrows to show how the starting material A is convertedto the product B. (b) Draw all reasonable resonance structures for B. (c) Draw the resonance hybrid for B.arrow_forward
- Rank the molecules in decreasing (strongest to weakest) acidity. Include ALL resonance structures with arrows and explain reasoning for rank.arrow_forward(a) Which of the following has lone pair on O atom that is part of aromaticity? (b) Which lacks complete cyclic conjugation? (c) Which does not follow the Huckel rule?arrow_forwardResveratrol is an antioxidant found in the skin of red grapes. Itsanticancer, anti-inflammatory, and various cardiovascular effects areunder active investigation. (a) Draw all resonance structures for theradical that results from homolysis of the OH bond shown in red.
