Why/how does resonance stabilize a molecule?
Why do delocalized electrons make a molecule more stable than one with localized electrons?
Why is acetic acid a stronger acid than phenol? (other than having a smaller pka, what about the structure makes it a stronger acid in terms of resonance and electrons?)
