polarity

Do different resonance structures affect the polarity of molecules?

Resonance structures have delocalized electrons, which means the negative charge is spread throughout all the bonds in the molecule. This affects polarity, as the spread charges reduce the polarity of the overall molecule.

Hope this helped!
