Question
Chapter 1, Problem 1.49P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Whether a double bond can exist between C and O atoms in the methoxide ion (
Concept introduction:
Resonance structures are alternative, valid Lewis structures of a molecule or ion, obtained by the movement of lone pair electrons and/or pi-bond electrons. The movement of electrons, however, must not violate the Octet rule by exceeding eight electrons in the valence shell.
