Answer:
When two single single bonds separated by a double bond (e.g C=C-C=C or C=C-C=O in the case of 2-cyclohexenone), the effect of resonance among those there bonds will be observed.
Explanation:
Since the Oxygen atom has higher electronegativity, it will cause the electrons in the resonance bonds 'flow' toward the Oxygen atom, so that the C=C will 'lose' some electron. The signal read for that bond will be different from other alkene structure.
Attachment is the resonance structure of 2-cyclohexene.
