**Question:**

Consider structure (I) (shown immediately below). Which of the following (shown below structure I) is/are resonance structures of I?

Structure I: 
- A five-membered ring with a ketone group (>C=O) attached to the top carbon. Nitrogen (NH) is part of the ring. 

Below structure I, four options (1 to 4) are given:

1. A five-membered ring with a positively charged nitrogen (NH) and a negatively charged oxygen at the top (O⁻).

2. A five-membered ring with an OH group attached at the top and NH part of the ring.

3. A five-membered ring with a positively charged nitrogen (NH) and a negatively charged oxygen at the top (O⁻).

4. A five-membered ring with a ketone group (>C=O) attached to the top carbon and NH part of the ring.

**Options:**

Select one:

- A. 1 and 3
- B. 4 only
- C. 2 only
- D. 1 only
- E. 3 only

Expert Solution
Step 1

Answer:-

This question is answered by using the simple concept of writing the resonating structure using the curved arrows to the movement of electrons. The position of atoms do not change while writing the resonating structures.
