Explanation:

1. Aromatic compounds-

a. have benzene cycle in their structure
b.have greater percentage of carbon than non aromatic compounds.
c.Don't show Bear test or bromine test.
d.Mainly show nucleophilic replacement reactions.
e.Show resonance in their structure.
e. Examples - benzene, naphthalene, pyridine etc.

2. Non aromatic Compounds-

a. Can be chained or cyclic but don't have benzene cycle.
b.saturated or unsaturated compounds.
c.Don't show resonance in their structure.
d.Mainly show electrophilic reactions.
e.unsaturated non organic compounds show bear and bromine test.
f.Examples - alkanes, alkenes, alkynes.
c.Don't show resonance in their structure.
