Delocalized systems require at least 3 adjacent p orbitals. Resonance structures

Question

Delocalized systems require at least 3 adjacent p orbitals. Resonance structures rapidly interconvert between two or more structures. When assigning hybridization to a central atom only the bond needs on the individual written structure should be considered. Neutral structures are never delocalized and will never have resonance structures. Delocalization involves electrons in sigma bonds. The major resonance structure(s) will allow all atoms to have octets if possible, minimize formal charges, and put more negative formal charges on electronegative atoms. Positive charges, negative charges, lone pairs, and radicals can all be delocalized if adjacent to a pi bond.

Explanation / Answer

Delocalised systems require a t least 3 adjacent p orbitals-------FALSE

Conjugated systems occur when you have a minimum of 3 adjacent p orbitals

===========================================

Resonance structure rapidly interconvert between two or more structures-FALSE

Resonance structure-are stable

When assigning hydrbidation to a central atom only the bond needs on the individual written structure should be considered-TRUE

NUETRAL STRUCTURE are never delocalised and will never have resonance structures FALSE

Delocalisation involves electrons in sigma bond-TRUE

Hyperconnjugation;

The major resonance structures will allow all atoms to have octet if psooble , minimize formal charge and put more negative formal charges on electronegative atoms-TRUE

Positive charges , negative charges , lone piars and radicals can all be delocalised if adjacent to api bond

TRUE
