Question
Chapter 14, Problem 14.1YT
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The resonance structure corresponding to the given VB picture is to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
Chemical and structural features of molecules are unaccounted for by VB theory, most notably electron delocalization or resonance over three or more nuclei. The VB theory picture of a species that has resonance is inaccurate because it represents a single resonance structure, not the hybrid.
