is used to represent the five -electrons (cf. Figure 6-2),
valence-bond structure (50) is obtained
12(b) (without electron spins). It is equivalent to resonance between valence-bond structures (48) and (49). In Figure 11-6,
another procedure is used to construct valence-bond structures that are analogous
to structures (48) and (49).
