3. (a) Draw a resonance structure for Molecule 1 in Box B, which satisfies the octet for all non- hydrogen atoms. Hint you may want to use curved arrows to move electrons over the skeleton of Molecule 3 to help you find the resonance structure. H H H H Molecule 1 H H 3. (b) Fill in the table below for Molecule 1 Box B: Resonance Structure of Molecule 1 VSEPR electron pair geometry around atom Molecular geometry Approximate bond or shape around atom angles around atom N atom CH3 C atom CH C atoms 3. (c) Given the information that resonating electrons are delocalized and so are not used to determine VSEPR geometry, how will the table you filled in for 3.(b) change?
