Question

The value of resonance energy of any resonance hybrid is

Answer 1

By comparing this value with the experimental value for benzene, we can conclude that benzene is 152 kJ or 36 kcal / mol more stable than the hypothetical system. This is the resonance energy for benzene. In principle, resonance energies can be calculated for any π systems.
