Question
Chapter 5, Problem 34CTQ
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The important resonances of below molecules should be drawn.
Concept introduction: When one single structure is unable to describe all the properties of single molecule, a phenomenon called resonance comes into play. This arises when two or more than two Lewis structures are possible for one molecule. All such structures are called resonating structures and have same placement of atoms in them but these have different locations of bond pairs and lone pairs. The resonating structures are inter-convertible with each other. The resultant of all the resonating or contributing structures is called the resonance hybrid.
Rules to form resonance structure are as follows:
1. Use arrow types 1 and 2 for resonance structure of anions in movement of negative charge.
2. Use only arrow type 3 to move a positive charge for resonance structure of cations.
3. The sigma bond should not be broken. Any atom must not move from its place and total number of electrons must be same in all resonance structures.

- O REPRESENTATIONS OF ORGANIC MOLECULES Ranking resonance structures Rank the resonance structures in each row of the table from major to minor.

Briefly explain the rankings. Part 1 Let's begin by considering which resonance patterns are present. First, add curved arrow(s) to show the resonance using the following pattern: a pi bond between two atoms of differing electronegativity. Modify the second structure given to draw the new resonance structure. Include relevant formal charges in your structure. Use the + and - tools to add/remove charges to an atom, and use the single bond tool to add/remove double bonds.
