Explain briefly how +2 state becomes more and more stable in the first half of the first row transition elements with increasing atomic number?
why is it that in some books the resonance structures of o and p nitrophenol is given upto only the fifth resonating structure??
Para last structure is wrong correct it
In 5th resonating structure of p-isomer,double bonds should b b/w carbon no.2&3,4&5 but here double bonds are given b/w carbon no.1&2,4&5 which is not right.
How can oxygen have 3 lone pairs.
Yes you are right the last structure will not have a double bond with oxygen atom.only a single bond will be their in the last structure because the electron involved in making double bond between carbon and oxygen has been transferred to the oxygen atom
The structure of para is wrong as in the last step the topmost carbon is having 5 bonds which is not possible.
