2. Provide two additional important resonance forms for the molecule below. Use arrows to show the flow of electrons. Explicitly draw all lone pairs. Of the three resonance structures, circle the one that would be most stable. (6 points)

Step 1
The given molecule is: \begin{verbatim} .. :O: || H3C-C-O-C=C-N-C-CH3 || | :O: H .. \end{verbatim} The electrons can move from the lone pair on the oxygen atom to form a double bond with the adjacent carbon atom. Simultaneously, Show more…

8. Rank the resonance structures as from 1-3 (most to least stable), and briefly explain your choice. Then draw a resonance hybrid for this molecule. 9. Draw the missing resonance structures. Include curved arrows to indicate how you get to each one. 10. Explain what it means for a lone pair to be delocalized, then draw an example of a molecule containing a localized lone pair, and one containing a delocalized lone pair.

Draw one additional resonance structures for each of the following molecules. Also draw the resonance hybrid. Be sure to also use curved arrows to show the movement of electrons. (Hint: start by drawing missing hydrogens and lone pairs of electrons.)
