Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following is a characteristic of aromatic compounds?
  • Step 1: Understand what aromatic compounds are. They are special types of chemical compounds that have a specific structure.
  • Step 2: Learn about Huckel's rule. This rule helps identify aromatic compounds.
  • Step 3: Huckel's rule states that for a compound to be aromatic, it must have a certain number of π (pi) electrons.
  • Step 4: The formula for Huckel's rule is (4n + 2), where 'n' is a whole number (0, 1, 2, ...).
  • Step 5: The compound must also be cyclic, meaning it forms a ring, and planar, meaning it lies flat.
