Question

Consider the following ions: NO2− , CO32− , and ClO4− . For each of these, you should use a Lewis structure that satisfies the octet rule. Which of these ions will exhibit resonance among multiple equivalent Lewis structures that satisfy the octet rule?

Answer 1

All the species mentioned do have resonance structures.

What is the Lewis structure?

The Lewis structure is an arrangement that shows the number of electrons that are attached to each of the atoms in a compound. In this case, the structure consists of the symbol of the elements and the number of electrons pairs of or odd electrons attached to the element.

Sometimes, a single Lewis structure is insufficient when discussing the properties of a compound. We must then invoke a number of structure which we call the resonance structures.

The the species mentioned in the question do have resonance structures that are obtained by satisfying the octet rule as shown in the images attached to this answer.
