(d) Electromeric effect is a temporary effect. The organic compounds having a multiple bond (a doubleor triple bond) show this effect in the presence of an attacking reagent only. It is defined as the complete transfer of a shared pair of? -electrons to one of the atoms joined by multiple bond on the demand of an attacking reagent.

(b) The difference in energy between the actual structure and the lowest energy resonance structure is called the resonance stabilisation energy or simply the resonance energy. The more the number of important contributing structures, the more is the resonance energy.

(c) In homolytic cleavage, one of the electrons of the shared pair in a covalent bond goes with each of the bonded atoms. Thus, in homolytic cleavage, the movement of a single electron takes place instead of an electron pair.
A heterolytic cleavage yields carbocations or carbanions, while a homolytic cleavage gives free radicals as reactive intermediate.
