Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
- The resonance contributors for the following species has to be predicted.
Concept Introduction:
Resonance Contributor: The appropriate structure with the localized electrons is called a resonance contributor, a resonance structure, or a contributing resonance structure.
Delocalized electrons: The sharing of electrons between two or more atoms known as delocalization of electrons. In order to have delocalized electrons, the system must be planar and have alternative double bonds and single bonds.
Resonance hybrid: The actual structure with delocalized electrons is called a resonance hybrid.
(b)
Interpretation:
- The resonance contributors for the given compounds has to be predicted.

- Predict the position of the equilibrium for the reaction and provide a brief explanation. (The acidic protons are shown in red.) 86-08 O Reverse direction is favored because nitrogen is more electronegative, making B the weaker base and D the stronger acid. O Forward direction is favored because nitrogen is more electronegative, making B the weaker base and D the stronger acid. O Reverse direction is favored because carbon is less electronegative, making C the weaker base and A the stronger acid.
