Water (H 2O) is a polar inorganic compound that is at room temperature a tasteless and odorless liquid, which is nearly colorless apart from an inherent hint of blue. It is by far the most studied chemical compound and is described as the "universal solvent" [18][19] and the "solvent of life".[20] It is the most abundant substance on Earth[21] and the only common substance to exist as a solid, liquid, and gas on Earth's surface.[22] It is also the third most abundant molecule in the universe.[21]
<em>They mostly occur at boundaries between tectonic plates. They can also be found by a belt called the "Ring of Fire" that encircles the Pacific Ocean. Volcanoes like that can be formed in Hawaii Islands in the part of the interior plate. These areas are known for being called the "hot spots." </em>

Canonical structures of a chemical specie explain its observed properties from a valence bond theory perspective.
Explanation:
Resonance is a valence bond concept introduced by Linus Pauling to explain the observed properties of certain chemical species such as bond lengths, bond angles, bond order , etc.
There are certain chemical species for which a single chemical structure does not suffice in explaining its observed properties. For instance, the bond order in CO3^2- is about 1.33. Its bond length, shows that the C-O bond present in CO3^2- is neither a pure C-O single bond nor a pure C-O double bond. Hence the structure of CO3^2- is 'somewhere in between' three contributing canonical structures as shown in the image attached to this answer. The resonance structures of NO3^- are also shown.
