Question

write all possible canonical structures of benzene.​

Answer 1

Answer:

2 resonance structures

Benzene has 2 resonance structures but taken individually none show the delocalisation of electrons and they can exist at the same time as electrons are delocalised. The real structure is an intermediate of these structures represented by a resonance hybrid.

Answer 2

Answer:

The chemical formula of benzene is C6H6, consisting of six carbon atoms and six hydrogen atoms. Benzene is an aromatic hydrocarbon, a chemical compound composed of carbon and hydrogen atoms with alternating double bonds forming a ring.
