Question
Chapter 2, Problem 11EQ
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The resonance structure of the given molecule is to be determined
Concept Introduction:
When the electron distribution of a molecule can be depicted correctly in more than one way using different Lewis structures, the drawings are called resonance structures.
Resonance structures have no discrete existence of their own but, taken in combination, describe the true structure of the molecule.

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.
