QUESTION:

For each of the structures below, draw the resonance structure that is indicated by the curved arrows. Be sure to include formal charges. (a) ! (b) @ (c) O O (d) N @ (e) OH (f) O O N ! @ (g) O O N ! @ (h) O

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 8

a.)  When drawing a resonance structure, if the arrow points to a bond, create a double bond. If it points to an atom, the atom gains a pair of electrons. The overall charge of a resonance structure should not change between structures. Here, the arrow points to a bond, so create a double bond using the electrons from the other double bond. Then, assign formal charges. Here, the left carbon loses a bond, so it is positively charged. This gives the following resonance structure.
