Explanation:

When a molecule has more than one correct Lewis structure, these structures are called resonance structures. Resonance structures are different Lewis structures that can be drawn for a molecule or ion. They have the same arrangement of atoms but differ in the distribution of electrons. The actual structure of the molecule is a hybrid of these resonance structures.
