Orgo Basics Video Series: Video 6
Resonance structures are alternative Lewis structures for a molecule or an ion. To draw the resonance hybrid or structures, we are moving electrons between adjacent atoms. Overwhelmed?
In the video below, you will see an explanation and illustration of resonance structures and resonance hybrids step-by-step. This will help you visualize what is going on behind arrows.
