wat is resonance energy basically??
n there is no difference between canonicals n resonating structures ryt??
1The resonance energy of a compound is a measure of the extra stability of the conjugated system compared to the corresponding number of isolated double bonds.
1in simple language it means...resonance energy is directly proportional to stability which is directly proportional to the number of pi bonds....hai na??
1The diff in energy betwn the actual structure & the lowest energy resonance structure is reso energy.
OR-Reso energy of of a reso hybrid is the diff betwn the theoritical & experimental heats of hydrogenation of the compound.
no. of pi-bonds proportional to no. of contributing st. prop2 reso energy prop2 stability
