I was asked to compare the bond strengths of various bond strengths in naphthalene. What I did was to make different resonating structure of naphthalene = 3 when only the uncharged were drawn. I counted the frequency if double bonds at various places. I came up with 2 types of bonds. Do you guys agree??I also drew the charge structures now. And the order of strength of bonds changes. Wikipedia doesnt support this:
Do I need to consider the charged resonance structures as well???
I shall b very grateful if someone could provide me with the data of bond lengths in naphthalene. I googled it but with no successful results.
