Q

in resonance if an atom must have a charge but the negative charge on the most ____________ atom

A

electronegative

40
Q

what are the three types of resonances

A

type I - when a molecule has a positive charge adjacent to a double/triple bond
type II - when a molecule has a negative charge or a lone e- pair adjacent to a double or triple bond
type III - when the molecule has BOTH a positive and negative charge adjacent to each other OR if the molecule has no charge but at least one double or triple bond

41
Q

what are the steps for type I resonance?

A
  1. start with the positive charge and label it #1. count through three consecutive atoms making sure there is a double or triple bond between atoms #2 and #3
  2. break the double/triple bond between atoms #2 and #3 and put it between atoms #1 and #2. place the positive charge on atom #3
42
Q

what are the steps for type II resonance?

A
  1. start with the positive charge and label it #1. count through three consecutive atoms making sure there is a double or triple bond between atoms #2 and #3
  2. lone pair/negative charge on atom #1 makes a double bond between atoms #1 and #2. the double/triple bond between atom #2 and #3 breaks and leave a lone pair on atom #3.
43
Q

what are the steps for type III resonance?

A
  1. if a molecule has no charge but it has a double or triple bond: break the double/triple bond between atoms #1 and #2. place a lone pair and a negative charge on atom #1 and a positive charge on atom #2
  2. if the molecule has both a positive and negative charge adjacent: move the lone pair from atom #1 and make a double bond between atoms #1 and #2
