Solution:

The resonance structures for RCOG are

Solution

or Solution

Electron-release from G(H, $CH_{3},OCH_{3}$ or $NH_{2}$ ) to O stabilizes Solution by diminishing the electrophilic character of carbonyl carbon. Since degree of delocalization is maximum in case of $-NH_{2}$ , therefore, the properties of Solution is suppressed most in amides $\left(\right.RCONH_{2}\left.\right)$ .
