Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The given pair of compounds is to be classified as isomers or resonance structures.
Concept introduction: Isomers are defined as the molecules having the same molecular formula but different arrangement of atoms. The arrangement of atoms in resonance structures remains same but the position of non-bonded electrons and pi bonds is different.
