Identify all correct statements pertaining to resonance within molecules

Question 3 of 21 Map A Sapling Learning this question was written by Brian Zacher at University ofArizona Identify all correct statements pertaining to resonance within molecules Resonance is reflected by a molecule requiring more than one Lewis structure to describe its molecular geometry and structure Resonance reflects greater delocalization of bonding electrons, which lowers the kinetic energy of the system because the bonding electrons can be considered to occupy a greater volume and possess a larger effective wavelength Resonance reflects greater delocalization of bonding electrons, which lowers the potential energy of the system because the bonding electrons can interact attractively with more than one nuclei and also reduces electron-electron repulsions by being localized on a single atom Resonance reflects that a molecule wi rapidly switch back and forth between all the possible Lewis structures for that molecule O Previous Give Up & View Solution Check Answer Next Ext
