Resonance structures are the Lewis structures that describe the delocalization of electrons in a molecule.
Resonance Structure 1 of methyl isocyanate:
This Include lone pairs of electrons, formal charges, and hydrogen atoms.
The formal charge on both Carbon atom is = 4 valance - 4 bonds = 0
Formal charge (O) = 6 V.E - 2 bonds - 4 non bonding electrons = 0
Formal charge on (N) = 5 V.E - 3 bonds - 2 non bonding electrons = 0
F.C. on H = 1 V.E. - 1 bond = 0
Overall charge on the molecule = 0 charge
Structure 2:
Formal Charge on Both (C)= (4valence e- - 4 bonds)= 0
Formal charge (O)= (6 V.E-1Bonds-6 nonbonding electrons)= -1 Charge
Formal Charge on (N)= (5 V.E-4Bonds-0 nonbonding electrons) = +1 Charge
F.C on H= (1 V.E-1Bond)=0
Overall Charge on the molecule= +1 -1 =0 charge
