Interpretation:
To draw all reasonable resonance structures for the given species
Concept introduction:
Resonance structure is an important concept in
The resonance structure must be shown in double headed resonance arrow to separate them. Example for the resonance structure is given below.
(b)
Interpretation:
To draw all reasonable resonance structures for the given species
Concept introduction:
Resonance structure is an important concept in organic chemistry and it must be understand what it means exactly. The resonance structure does not mean the structure is flipping back and forth between the two structures. It is a static and an average of the two resonance structure. Simply, it is a mixture of all possible resonance structure. And it is the electron pairs drawn in different location in the structure that are delocalized. If the delocalization of electron density is in large volume then the resonance hybrid structure is a stable one.
The resonance structure must be shown in double headed resonance arrow to separate them. Example for the resonance structure is given below.

- Determine the pH of solution of HC3H5O2 By constructing an ICE table writing the equilibrium constant expression, and using this information to determine the pH. The Ka of HC3H5O2 is 1.3 x 10-5arrow_forwardDetermine if the following salt is neutral, acidic or basic. If acidic or basic, write the appropriate equilibrium equation for the acid or base that exists when the salt is dissolved in aqueous solution. If neutral, simply write only NR. Be sure to include the proper phases for all species within the reaction LiNO3arrow_forwardAn unknown weak acid with a concentration of 0.410 M has a pH of 5.600.

Next, record any regiochemistry or stereochemistry considerations relevant to the reaction. You should also record any key aspects of the mechanism, such as forma- tion of an important intermediate, as a helpful reminder. You may want to keep track of all reactions that make carbon-carbon bonds, because these help you build large molecules from smaller fragments.
