Draw resonance structure of benzene?
For benzene, all you have to do is move the double bonds of the ring around. And for the H2NCH2+, you have 2H on the N, and then a double bond between N and C, then two H bonded to the C.
Why is benzene classified as an aromatic compound?
There isn't such a thing as more aromatic. Something is aromatic or not. If you are referring to the stabilization due to aromaticity, naphthalene has more electrons in the stabilizing Pi-system is therefore more stabilized.
Why is benzene unsaturated give reasons?
The benzene molecule is unsaturated but the double bonds present inside the benzene ring are delocalized due to bond resonance (pi structure). This makes the double bonds of benzene much less reactive then more discreet double bonds (as in ethylene). This structure makes it behave more like a saturated compound, preferring substitution reactions over addition reactions. It is resistant to addition reactions across the double bond because such a reaction reduces the resonance stabilization energy. However, when reactions do occur, resonance stability is almost always re-established (Birch Reduction reactions are exceptions. See related link).
Does H2O have a resonance structure?
No, H2O does not have a possible resonance structures.
How many resonance structures does the nitrate ion NO21- have?
There are three possible, equally distributed, resonance structures of nitrate (NO3-).Cf. Related links for the possible Lewis structure of them, on the lowest half of that page.
Is benzene resonance stabilised?
Yes!
Benzene ring has three pi-bonds in it but is still quite stable.explain?
Benzene has a property called resonance. Because of this, the three pi-bonds in benzene act as a rather delocalized single pi-structure. So, benzene does not actually have 3 distinct pi-bonds. This pi-structure is stable, which explains why benzene is more stable than it would be if it had 3 pi-bonds.
Structure of benzene best described?
This is a tough question. Virtually every Organic chemistry teacher will say 2....the two Kekule resonance structures. However....that is incorrect. Benzene also has 4 other minor resonance forms. Mathematical calculations, as well as quantum mechanics have shown conclusively that benzene is not 2 sole resonance canonicals....but the Dewar structures as well. My proof is this....the bond order is not 1.5, as predicted....but rather 1.463. Hope this helps. Dr Jim Romano CEO Romano Scientific CEO Orgoman.com
Why are the C-C bonds in benzene equal?
because of resonance
How many resonance structure for BeF2?
4
Which compound contains a longer C-C bond benzene or ethene?
c-c bond length in benzene is 1.397 angston and that of ethene is 1.34 angston structure of benzene is a resonance hybrid, therefore all the c-c bond lengths are equal but different from those in alkanes,alkenes, and alkynes.

Why benzene undergoes electrophilic substitution reaction whereas alkenes undergoes addition reaction?
The cation formed upon addition of an electrophile to benzene is highly stabilized by resonance,whereas the cation formed to an alkene is stabilized by hyperconjugation. The loss of a proton in benzene is favourable due to the restoration of the cyclic pi-system.
Resonance structure of butadiene?
Resonance structure of butadiene explains H2C. This is known as carbon and hydrogen.
What type of hybridisation in benzene?
sp^2 Due to 3 pi bonds, In reality a single pi 'cloud' of 6 delocalised electrons exists around the ring (refer to resonance structure).
What is more volatile benzene or acetone?
ACETONE IS. BENEZE is quiet stability as a result of resonance
Why is benzene classified as an aromatic compound?
