32:23 the third molecule seems missing a positive charge on the carbon atom
Arash Kaviani
@kian Shirvani I dont think there is a way to determine that except through actually drawing/determining the resonance structures. HOWEVER, in some compounds you can basically look at how many atoms have the ability to share the charge that will bounce around in the resonance structures, and that usually equals the number of structures.

How do we predict how many resonance structures a molecule will have?
