Chapter 9, Problem 9.16QE
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The term resonance structures have to be described.

Concept Introduction:

The bonding between the different atoms in covalent molecules is shown by diagrams known as the Lewis structures. These also show the lone pairs in the molecule. These structures are also known as Lewis dot diagrams, electron dot diagrams, Lewis dot structures. In covalent compounds, the geometry, polarity, and reactivity are predicted by these structures
