Concept explainers
- a)
Interpretation:
- The compounds containing delocalized electrons to be identified and resonance contributors for those given compounds to be drawn.
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.

- - Draw all significant: resonance structures of anion B. Which structure the most stable? Explain.arrow_forwardQuestion Consider molecules A–D. Does the arrow pushing in each structure leadto an acceptable resonance form? If so, draw it and carefully explain your answer and provide explanations for why each structure leds to an acceptable or unacceptable resonance form. Why is the arrow pushing acceptable or unacceptable in each individual case?arrow_forward1. Draw an aromatic ring, which contains only hydrogens and 5 carbons; add charges and lonepairs if needed 2. Draw a non-aromatic ring which contains only hydrogen and 5 carbons and have conjugateddouble bonds; add charges and lone pairs if needed.arrow_forward
- With reference to structure A, label structure B as an identical compound, a constitutional isomer, a resonance structure, or none of the above. Select the single best answer. CI 519 O Constitutional isomer O Resonance structure O Identical compound O None of the abovearrow_forwardx-xo B Draw molecule A. On that drawing include the lone pairs and the curved arrows that would produce resonance structure B.arrow_forward4. Draw the possible resonance structures for compounds C and D. Include lone pairs and indicate non-zero formal charges. Circle the minor resonance contributor for compound C. O :O: :O: C & Darrow_forward
