Draw all important contributing structures for the following allylic carbocation. You do not have to consider stereochemistry. Draw all contributing structures in the window below, including the structure given above. Remember that resonance forms which appear to be the same through symmetry are considered to be different resonance forms. Draw one structure per sketcher. Add additional sketchers using the drop-down menu in the bottom right corner. Separate resonance structures using the ↔ symbol from the drop-down menu.

00:01 In this problem, you're given a carbocation, and because it's next to a double bond, we call this allylic.
00:13 What you're asked here is to give resonance structures for the following.
00:19 Now, remember that when you have a positive charge on carbon, it means carbon has three bonds and no lone pairs of electrons.
00:27 So really, you can think of it as having an open orbital there...
