Answers
✨ Alicyclic compounds✨
these are the compounds having the properties like aliphatic compounds this may be saturated or unsaturated like aliphatic compounds.
⏩example : cyclopropane ,cyclopropene, cyclobutene.
✨Aromatic compounds ✨
these compounds consist of at least one benzene ring i.e. a six membered carbo cyclic ring having alternate single and double bonds.
⏩ this compound have fragrant odour,and hence named as aromatic.

Alicyclic compound:-
» These compounds are formed by the joining of two two carbon C12 atoms of an aliphatic chain through a covalent bond which then gives a cyclic type structure.
» Alicyclic compounds are cyclic compounds yet resemble the aliphatic compounds in their properties.
Eg:- Cyclobutene, cyclopropane etc.
________________________________________
Aromatic compound:-
» Aromatic compounds are also cyclic, but the bonds are delocalized.
» Aromatic compounds have conjugated rings and show aromaticity as the main property.
Eg:- Toluene, Phenol etc.
