Resonance has far-reaching effects on molecular properties. It can equalize bond lengths, making double bonds longer and single bonds shorter than expected. It also stabilizes charged species, influencing acidity and basicity. For example, the resonance stabilization of a carboxylate ion increases the acidity of carboxylic acids
