Question
Chapter 23, Problem 23.37CP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The resonance structures of naphthalene showing the positions of double bonds have to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
- Sometimes the
chemical bonding of a molecule cannot be represented using a single Lewis structure. In these cases, the chemical bonding are described by delocalization of electrons and is known as resonance. - All the possible resonance structures are imaginary whereas the resonance hybrid is real.
- In a molecule, if two atoms are bonded covalently, then the distance between both nuclei is known as bond length. As the number of bond increases, the bond length decreases.
