Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The two resonance structures of HSO4^- with appropriate curved arrows and corresponding resonance hybrid are to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
In the single Lewis structure do not show the delocalization of electrons within certain molecule but resonance structure is capable of it. The delocalized electrons in molecule or ions are shown by several contributing structures. In the resonance structure, the electrons, double, triple can shift from one atom to another but the position of atom remain same. The actual structure is the average resonance structure that the possible more than one equivalent resonance structure for ions or molecule. The resonance hybrid is represented as the average of two ore more equivalent structures.

N'arrow_forwardThe curved arrow notation is a powerful method used by organic chemists to show the movement of electrons not only in resonance structures, but also in chemical reactions. Since each curved arrow shows the movement of two electrons, following the curved arrows illustrates what bonds are broken and formed in a reaction. Consider the following reaction. Choose the correct image that shows the curved arrows to show the movement of electrons.arrow_forwardQ. 9a) Provide additional resonance structures for the following species. Remember to show lone pairs & formal charges where applicable + [ :N=N-F: +→ [:0-C!-O: → Q. 9b) Draw the Lewis Structure for NCCH2CO2NHCH3, determine the number of sigma bonds & the number of pi bonds present, and indicate the bond angle value around each carbon atom, each nitrogen atom, and each oxygen atom.arrow_forward
- The next part of the problem is to draw the resonance hybrid. (Exclude formal charges) I’m not sure where to put the dotted resonance lines of the hybrid structure.arrow_forwardIn the following Lewis structure of [(CH3)2OH]+, every atom, bond and lone pair is positioned. To complete the structure, drag the formal charge tags to the appropriate atom(s). Each marker may be used more than once, or not at all. If an atom has a formal charge of zero, do not drag a tag to it. When you drag the marker in, place the little crosshairs in the upper left corner of the marker directly over the atom(s) in question (not above them).

Doxorubicin works by binding to DNA in such a way that a portion of it penetrates the DNA double helix— a process called intercalation. During transcription— the process that forms RNA— portions of the DNA strands are temporarily separated for the base sequence to be read and then are reconnected. With bound doxorubicin, however, the double helix does not reform properly after the strands are separated, which disrupts replication— the process that forms an identical copy of DNA. Which portion of doxorubicin do you think intercalates into the DNA double helix, and why do you think it has little difficulty doing so?arrow_forward
