Question

Explain resonance theory..

(for 4 marks...)question can be asked...so answer accordingly guys class..11th​

Answer 1

Answer

Theory of resonance is

Theory of resonance, in chemistry, theory by which the actual normal state of a molecule is represented not by a single valence-bond structure but by a combination of several alternative distinct structures. ... There is sometimes an ambiguity in the location of double bonds.

pls mark me brainliest

Answer 2

Resonance is a method of explaining a type of bonding.

• Resonance, also called mesomerism, is a way of describing bonding in certain molecules or ions by the combination of several contributing structures.
• In other words, delocalized electrons within certain molecules or polyatomic ions where the bonding cannot be expressed by a single Lewis formula.
• A molecule or ion with such delocalized electrons is represented by several resonance structures.
• Resonance occurs because of the overlap of orbitals.
