VSEPR? More like "Very cool; thank you sir!" 🙏

5:12 "pp" 😄

But on a serious note, related to what we were discussing yesterday, if you can draw a major contributing resonance structure where an atom makes one double bond to another (and no other double or triple bonds), does that always imply the existence of some amount of sp2 character? Or are there any cases where you can draw such a resonance structure, but the atom in question does *not* have any appreciable sp2 character? Thanks in advance!
