Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The compounds are likely resonance structures of the same molecule, since they have the same chemical formula and differ only in the placement of double bonds and charge distributions. Resonance structures do not represent different molecules, but rather contribute to the overall picture of the molecule's electronic structure.
