  1. a. Draw resonance contributors for the following species. Do not include structures that are so unstable that their contributions to
    the resonance hybrid would be negligible. Indicate which species are major contributors and which are minor contributors to
    the resonance hybrid.
































































b. Do any of the species have resonance contributors that all contribute equally to the resonance hybrid?
