Accepted Answer

Hello. Everyone in this video, we're trying to give all the apostle resonance structures for payroll, which is this compound over here. Alright, so we can go ahead and manipulate this molecule by having the lone pair move over here and create a double bond. So then this bond must go ahead and break and form a lone pair on the neighboring carbon. So following the arrow, pushing here, let's just go ahead and drop the nitrogen connected to the hydrogen. Alright, so now we will still have the structure of a five member. Bring the double bond on the left side will stay as is now following the barrel portion of the long pair to create a double volunteer do that. And then this double bond we'll go ahead and break and form a lone pair on this carbon. So we'll have a long pair there. All right now doing the exact same thing, we'll put this lone pair to give a double bond and the neighboring double bond will then of course break and form a long pair. So find those Again. We have our five member id ring and there's a hydrant attached to this nitrogen atom. We still don't forget our formal charges. So for this molecule that which is true or this president structure, that was just true. We'll have a formal charge of plus one on our nitrogen because we have four bonds and no lone pairs and then the carbon with the long pair on the bottom here will have a negative one formal charge. Alright now for the again we're just following the arrow pushing here from this structure to the structure. So we're going to go ahead and keep this double bond and then our lone pair will go ahead from a double bond here because it's moving to this bottom and then this double bond will go hand brake and form a long pair. So of course we have a formal charge of plus one for a nitrogen atom and for the carbon with the lone pair, that's going to be a negative one, formal charge. So again, following the air pushing pattern here, we can go ahead and use this lone pair to create a double bond between the carbon and nitrogen and the double bond. Right here we go ahead and break to form a lone pair. So again, I'm just gonna go ahead and draw the skeletal five member ring here with a hydrant attached to that nitrogen. So we have a long prayer breaking to form a pipe on there and then we have the pi bond breaking to form a lone parent is going to be on this carbon over to the right of our nitrogen atom. So now again, following the same pattern, we'll have our long pair forming a double bond here and this pipe bomb will go ahead and break to form a long pair. Just go ahead and draw the structure arrows. Again, our skeletal five member id ring the double bond on top of state the same as well as our single bond to hydrogen. So now dealing with first our pipe on breaking to form long pair. So this right here, we'll go ahead and form a lone pair at this carbon, giving it a negative one formal charge, which I forgot to put here. Cute. And then the double bond, the forms is going to be from our lone pair from this carbon here. So we'll have a double bond here against doing the same exact thing. We'll have our long pair forming a double bond and this double bond will go ahead and form a long pair onto our nitrogen. And if we do that, we can actually get this first star material here are apparel. So that's going to be all of our resonance structures for this compound here.
