Question

Is delocalized lone-pair same as delocalized electron?

Answer 1

Answer:

A lone pair may seem to have some bonding characteristics; instead of sticking near one atom, it visits two atoms. A bond pair may appear to move between two different pairs of atoms. These electrons step outside the boundaries that Lewis' theory has set for them, and we consider them to be delocalized

Answer 2

A lone pair may seem to have some bonding characteristics; instead of sticking near one atom, it visits two atoms. A bond pair may appear to move between two different pairs of atoms. These electrons step outside the boundaries that Lewis' theory has set for them, and we consider them to be delocalized.
