Question

indicate the compound having maximum resonance energy?
a) Naphthalene
(b) Benzene
C) Phenanthrene
(d) Dipheny!​

Answer 1

Answer:

benzene have the maximum resonance energy...!

Answer 2

for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, stability can be said to be proportional to resonance energy per benzene rings. (per is stressed)

Here resonance energy per benzene ring decreases from 36 Kcal/mol for benzene

to 30.5 Kcal/mol for naphthalene,

30.3 Kcal/mol for phenanthene and

28 Kcal/mol for anthracene.

Hence, order of stability (or RE):

Benzene > Phenanthrene > Naphthalene > Anthracene.

So the compound having maximum resonance energy is Benzene here. hope you understood. I think it's a supplementary content of goc grade11. Mark me brainliest of you feel so cause I searched for the answer a lot.
