- Draw all reasonable resonance structures for the species shown below. Include arrows to show electron movement. Draw the resonance hybrid structures. ди [m]arrow_forwardA resonance hybrid is a structure that can be depicted by more than one valid Lewis structure. part1: Draw the major resonance form of fulminic acid, HCNO, with the atoms connected as indicated in the formula. Your structure should have nonzero formal charges minimized, and it should include all nonzero formal charges and all nonbonding electrons. part2: Draw the second most important resonance form of fulminic acid, HCNO, with the atoms connected as indicated in the formula. Your structure should have nonzero formal charges minimized, and it should include all nonzero formal charges and all nonbonding electrons. part3: Draw the least important resonance contributor for fulminic acid, HCNO, with the atoms connected as indicated in the formula. Your structure should have nonzero formal charges minimized and should include all nonzero formal charges and all nonbonding electrons.arrow_forwardWhen drawing a resonance hybrid, how is the relative significance of individual resonance structures represented? O The entire resonance structure will be drawn larger or smaller, depending on its significance. O There is no way to note the significance of a resonance structure in atdrawing. The most significant resonance structure is circled. The partial charges will be written larger or smaller, depending on the significance of the resonance structure.
