Question 13

Write the resonance structures for SO3, NO2 and .

Answer

Resonance is defined as the phenomenon as a result of which a molecule can be expressed in different forms, none of which can explain all the properties of the molecules. The actual structure of the molecule is called resonance hybrid.

The resonating structures must have same position of the atoms, they must have same number of paired & unpaired electrons, they should have nearlt same energy. The resonance structures are:

(a) SO3:

 

(b) NO2

 

(c)
