Assertion (A) . Energy of resonance hybrid is equal to the average of energines of all canonical forms.
Reason (R). Resonance hybrid cannot be presented by a single structure.

A

Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A.

B

Both A and R are correct but R is not the correct explanation of A.

C

Both A and R are not correct.

D

A is not correct but R is correct.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Correct A: The energy of the resonance hybrid is equal to sum of the energies of the various canonical structures in proportion of their contribution towards resonance hybrid.

    Consider the following statements. I.The canonical forms have no real existence. II. The molecule does not exist for a certain fraction of time in one canonical form and for other fractions of time in other canonical forms. III. There is no such equilibrium between the canonical forms as we have between tautomerism. IV. The molecule as such has a single structure which is the resonance hybrid of the canonical forms and which cannot as such be depicted by a single Lewis structure. Which of the above are correct ? Choose the correct option.
