Chapter 7.SE, Problem 56AP

Interpretation Introduction

a)

Interpretation:

All the resonance forms that would stabilize the carbocation given are to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

Different resonance forms that stabilize a molecule differ only in the placement of their bonding or nonbonding electrons. Neither the position nor the hybridization of any atom changes from one resonance form to another.

To draw:

All the resonance forms that would stabilize the carbocation given.
