Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions
Which of the following compounds is an aromatic hydrocarbon?
Correct Answer: Benzene
Step 1: Understand what an aromatic hydrocarbon is. It is a compound that is cyclic (ring-shaped) and has delocalized pi electrons.
Step 2: Identify the compound in question. Look for a compound that is in a ring structure.
Step 3: Check if the compound has delocalized pi electrons. This means that the electrons are shared across the entire ring rather than being localized between two atoms.
Step 4: If the compound is cyclic and has delocalized pi electrons, it is an aromatic hydrocarbon. If it does not meet these criteria, it is not.
