Resonance structure of a molecule cannot have

A

identical arrangement of atoms

B

nearly the same energy

C

the same number of unpaired electrons

D

identical bonding

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Resonance structure cannot have identical bonding because in writing resonance structures, we are only allowed to move electrons. Resonance structure can have nearly the same energy content provided thay are equilvalent.
