Subjective

Which of the two structures $(A)$ and $(B)$ given below is more stabilised by resonance.

Explain $$\mathop {C{H_3}COOH}\limits_{(A)} $$ and $$\mathop {C{H_3}CO{O^\Theta }}\limits_{(B)} $$

Explanation

Resonating structures of (A) and (B) are as follows

Structure (II) is less stable than structure (I) because later carries separation of positive and negative charges. Therefore, contribution of structure (II) is less than that of (I) towards the resonance hybrid of compound (A), i.e., $\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{COOH}$. On contrary, structure (III) and (IV) are of equal energy and hence contribute equally towards the resonance hybrid of compound ( $B$ ). Therefore, structure $(B)$ is more stable than structure $(A)$ i.e., $\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{COO}^{\ominus}$.

Column I Column II Explanation
A. Carbocation sp$$^2$$-hybridised carbon with empty p-orbital H$$_3$$C$$^+$$ is carbocation. Loss of e$$^-$$ makes its p-orbitals empty (sp$$^2$$-hybridised carbon)
B. Nucleophile Species that can supply a pair of electron Nucleus loving i.e., having negative charge or excess of electrons
C. Hyperconjugation Conjugation of electrons of $\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{H} \sigma$ bond with empty $p$-orbital present at adjacent positively charged carbon
D. Isomers Cyclohexane and 1-hexene Same molecular formula but different structures
E. sp-hybridisatioin Ethyne HC = CH (sp-hybridisation)
F. Electrophile Species that receive a pair of electron Electron loving i.e., positive charge or lack of electrons
