The value of resonance energy of nitromethane is represented by which equation?
(A) Resonance energy is defined as the difference between the potential energy of the most stable contributing resonance structure and the actual potential energy of the resonance hybrid structure.
$\text{Resonance energy} = \text{Potential energy of the most stable resonance structure} - \text{Potential energy of the resonance hybrid}$
$\text{Resonance energy} = \text{Potential energy of the most stable resonance structure} - \text{Potential energy of the resonance hybrid}$
