Which of the following resonance structure for propenal is more stable ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine which resonance structure of propenal is more stable, we need to analyze the two given resonance structures based on several stability criteria. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Identify the Resonance Structures We have two resonance structures for propenal: 1. Structure A: CH2=CH-CHO (with a double bond between the first two carbons and a carbonyl group at the end) 2. Structure B: CH2^+-CH=CH-O^- (with a positive charge on the first carbon and a negative charge on the oxygen) ### Step 2: Check the Octet Rule ...
