Identify the correct resonance structures of carbon dioxide from the o

1.	Identify the correct resonance structures of carbon dioxide from the ones given below :
Answer» `O-C-=O` `O=C=O` `.^(-)O-=C-O^+` `.^(-)O-C-=O^+` Solution :RESONANCE explains delocalized electrons within CERTAIN molecules or polyatomic ions where the BONDING cannot be expressed by one single Lewis formula. `O=C=O HARR .^(+)O -=C - O^(-)hArr .^(-)O - C-=O^+`
