Interpretation:
The resonance contributors are to be discussed for the two possible protonated forms of acetamide.
Concept introduction:
The delocalization of electrons within the molecules is known as resonance.
The organic compound with molecular formula
The attraction between positively charged atoms and negatively charged atoms takes place due to the electrostatic force.
The rules for drawing resonance structures are as follows:
Only nonbonding electron pairs and pi electrons can participate in conjugation in the formation of various resonating structures.
The single bonds present in the molecule do not break or form in the resonance structures.
The placement of atoms present in the molecule remains fixed.
The octet of all atoms is completely filled.
