Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The significant resonance structure has to be drawn.

Concept Introduction:

Resonance is a method to relating to describe about delocalized electrons inside certain molecules or polyatomic ions where the Lewis structure can’t be expressed. A molecule or ion containing delocalized electrons can be represented by using several similar structures such structures are called as resonance structures or canonical structures.

The delocalization of electron lowers the potential energy of the substance and making it more stable than any of the contributing structures. The variation in the potential energy of the actual structure and that of resemblance structure with lowest potential energy is known as resonance energy or delocalization energy.

Rules to determine significant resonance structure:

  1. 1) Decrease the charges
  2. 2) Presence of octet electrons in electronegative atoms such as Oxygen, Nitrogen and Chlorine bearing a positive charge.
  3. 3) Resonance structures should be avoided for two Carbon atoms bearing opposite charges.

Comparison of experimental data to “known” value. Monna and co-workers used radioactive isotopes to date sediments from lakes and estuaries.21 To verify this method they analyzed a 208Po standard known to have an activity of 77.5 decays/min, obtaining the following results.   77.09, 75.37, 72.42, 76.84, 77.84, 76.69, 78.03, 74.96, 77.54, 76.09, 81.12, 75.75   Do the results differ from the expected results at the 95% confidence interval?
Explain the difference between the propagated uncertainty and the standard deviation. Which number would you use to describe the uncertainty in the measurement? if the standard deviation is 0.01 and the propagated uncertainty is 0.03
Propagation of uncertainty. Find the absolute and percent relative uncertainty assuming the ±-values are random error. 7.65±0.04 + 5.28±0.02 – 1.12±0.01 85.6±0.9 × 50.2±0.7 ÷ 13.8±0.5 [4.88±0.07 + 3.22±0.05] / 1.53±0.02
