Why can phenoxide's negative charge only be stabilized through resonance in the ortho/para position but not the meta position? Provide a drawing to explain your answer.
Objectives - Section 1 • Identify a substituent as an ortho para director or a meta director, Draw the resonance structure that explains the relative directing ability of a specific substituent. Classify a substituent as an activating or a deactivating group. Explain why the halogens are ortho/para directors but are deactivators. • 1. Draw the mechanism of the reaction below and use resonance structures of the arenium ion intermediate to explain why the starting material is an ortho/para director
write resonance structures for the ortho and para arenium ions formed when ethylbenzene reacts with a Br+ ion (as formed from (Br2/FeBr3)
6. (20 points) There are three non-equivalent resonance Lewis structures for the selenate ion, Se042. Draw the three non-equivalent (different formal charge distribution) resonance structures for the ion. Indicate the formal charges for all atoms in each resonance structure. Which structure is the major contributor to the resonance?
(a) Draw two resonance structures of the cation shown below,
shifting only one electron pair in each step. Be sure to include
the formal charge on structures B and C.(b) Use curved-arrow notation on the given structure A to show its
conversion to structure B, and then on structure B to show its
conversion to structure C.
Consider the resonance structures for the carbonate ion. How much negative charge is on each oxygen of the carbonate ion? What is the bond order of each carbon-oxygen bond in the rbonate ion?
For the cyanate ion (NCO), a. Draw three reasonable Lewis structures (i.e. resonance structures) that obey the octet rule. b. Calculate the formal charge for each element in each structure. Clearly show your work c. Clearly identify the most stable structure based on the formal charges calculated in part b. d. Explain the reason for the structure you selected as most stable.
label the formal charge on each atom and rank
Label the formal charge on each atom in the given resonance structures and rank most to least important. Label the formal charge on each atom in the resonance structures given below. Then rank them in order from most important to least important resonance structure.
a) Draw a Lewis structure including all resonance structures and nonzero formal charges for the isolated azide anion, N3- b) .Based on the Lewis structure, predict whether the two N-N bond lengths in the azide ion will be the same or different; if different, which one is longer; and whether the bond lengths are shorter or longer than those in N2 c) Draw a Lewis structure including all resonance structures and nonzero formal charges for hydrogen azide, HN3 d) Based...
All questions go with Model 4 , please label thank you
in the Ltwis suettre for PCls and XeFe Model 4: Which Lewis Structure is Better? The two structures below could represent the thiocyanate polyatomic ion. However only one does. Formal charges can be used to distinguish which has a lower energy and is therefore a better description of the lowest energy state of this ion. How is formal charge determined? 9. 10. How is formal charge used to identify...
