C ₆ H ₆ consists of one ring, while naphthlene consists of two rings. Both of them are aromatic and obey the (4 n+2) rule. Thus the number of -electrons inside rings of C ₆ H ₆ and naphthalene are respectively
Options
- A3,5
- B5,10
- C6,10
- D6,12
Correct answer
C. 6,10
Step-by-step solution
Benzene, (4 n+2) electrons n=1 ( 6 electrons) Naphthalene, (4 n+2) ; n=2,10 electrons Both obey Huckel's rule.
