Ylides are molecules in which two adjacent atoms have opposite ones, and the most stable resonance structure most often has the fewest of these.
Ylides are molecules in which two adjacent atoms have opposite ones, and the most stable resonance structure most often has the fewest of these. They assume homolytic bond cleavage and approximate the amount of electron density surrounding an atom in a compound. The correct Lewis structure for a molecule has, for 10 points, the fewest of what abstraction, typically calculated by subtracting from the number of valence electrons the number of lone pair electrons and half the number of shared electrons?
