Chapter 15.SE, Problem 25AP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

One of the resonance structures of anthracene is given. Its other four resonance structures are to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

Resonance structures differ only in the position of lone pair or its π electrons. The position of atoms in different resonance forms do not differ. They do not represent the actual structure of the molecule. The actual structure is a hybrid of all the resonance forms possible.

To draw:

Three resonance structures of anthracene other than that shown are to be drawn.
