Solution

The correct options are
A HCOO
B NO2
D SO3

The species showing resonating structure are HCOO, NO2 and SO3.

HCOOH does not shows resonating structure:The first Lewis structure is reasonable, but the second one, with three bonds and a lone pair on an oxygen atom, is not considered a reasonable resonance structure. Therefore, there is no significant resonance for formic acid, and the first Lewis structure above is the best description of its structure.
