1.	Assertion (A) : Energy of resonance hybrid is equal to the average of energies of all canonical forms. Reason (R) : Resonance hybrid cannot be represented by a single structure.
Answer» Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A. Both A and R are correct but R is not the correct explanation of A. Both A and R are not correct. A is not correct but R is correct. Solution :Correct A. The energy of the resonancehybrid is equal to the SUM of the energies of the various canonical STRUCTURES in proportion of their contribution towards the resonance hybrid.
