The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the two structures is a more important contributor to the resonance hybrid, we need to analyze the given options based on the octet rule and the stability of the structures. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Structures**: We have multiple resonance structures to evaluate. Let's denote them as Option 1, Option 2, Option 3, and Option 4. 2. **Check Octet Rule for Each Atom**: - **Option 1**: - Hydrogen (H): 2 electrons (complete) - Carbon (C): 6 electrons (not complete) - Nitrogen (N): 6 electrons (not complete) - Conclusion: Not a valid contributor since carbon does not complete its octet. - **Option 2**: - Hydrogen (H): 2 electrons (complete) - Carbon (C): 8 electrons (complete) - Nitrogen (N): 8 electrons (complete) - Conclusion: All atoms satisfy the octet rule, making this a valid and stable contributor. - **Option 3**: - Hydrogen (H): 2 electrons (complete) - Carbon (C): 8 electrons (complete) - Nitrogen (N): 6 electrons (not complete) - Conclusion: Not a valid contributor since nitrogen does not complete its octet. - **Option 4**: - Hydrogen (H): 2 electrons (complete) - Carbon (C): 6 electrons (not complete) - Conclusion: Not a valid contributor since carbon does not complete its octet. 3. **Conclusion**: After evaluating all options, **Option 2** is the most important contributor to the resonance hybrid because it satisfies the octet rule for all atoms involved. ### Final Answer: **Option 2 is the more important contributor to the resonance hybrid.** ---
