no they are not in eq. they collectively gives the actual structure of the molecule.

resonance hybrid alone exists . the resonance structures don't have any existence . actually the VBT and others are quite outdated for explaination . MOT gives satisfactory explanation.

see resonating structures are purely theoritical. electrons which r under resonance are under constant motion.
