Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The two resonance structures of HSO4^- with appropriate curved arrows and corresponding resonance hybrid are to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
In the single Lewis structure do not show the delocalization of electrons within certain molecule but resonance structure is capable of it. The delocalized electrons in molecule or ions are shown by several contributing structures. In the resonance structure, the electrons, double, triple can shift from one atom to another but the position of atom remain same. The actual structure is the average resonance structure that the possible more than one equivalent resonance structure for ions or molecule. The resonance hybrid is represented as the average of two ore more equivalent structures.
