2.6 Resonance & Formal Charge

by Ashley Saenz

Multiple Choice

How many resonance structures can be drawn for NOCl?

Multiple Choice

What is the formal charge on the oxygen atom at the top of this Lewis dot structure?

-1

-2

Multiple Choice

The diagram above shows two resonance structures for a molecule of C6H6 . The phenomenon shown in the diagram best supports which of the following claims about the bonding in C6H6 ?

In the C6H6 molecule, all the bonds between the carbon atoms have the same length.

Because of variable bonding between its carbon atoms, C6H6 is a good conductor of electricity.

The bonds between carbon atoms in C6H6 are unstable, and the compound decomposes quickly.

The C6H6 molecule contains three single bonds between carbon atoms and three double bonds between carbon atoms

Multiple Choice

Which of the following Lewis diagrams best represents the bonding in the N2O molecule, considering formal charges?
