Problem

A molecule may be represented by three structures having energies E1,E2E_1, E_2 and E3E_3, respectively. The energies of these structures follow the order E3<E2<E1E_3 < E_2 < E_1, respectively. If the experimental bond energy of the molecule is E0E_0, the resonance energy is : a. (E1+E2+E3)−E0(E_1 + E_2 + E_3) - E_0 b. E0−E3E_0 - E_3 c. E0−E1E_0 - E_1 d. E0−E2E_0 - E_2
