उत्तर

o-xylene has two resonance structures:

All three products, i.e., methyl glyoxal, 1, 2-dimethylglyoxal, and glyoxal are obtained from two Kekule structures. Since all three products cannot be obtained from any one of the two structures, this proves that o-xylene is a resonance hybrid of two Kekule structures (I and II).
