Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Consider a hypothetical molecule that exhibits resonance. Summarize how you would represent this molecule using resonance structures. What does this representation indicate about its stability?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about real examples like CO32βˆ’ or O3 for guidance.

Question 2

Analyze the impact of resonance on the acidity of a molecule. Use an example to support your explanation.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how electron delocalization affects charge stability.
