Benzene molecule contains:
Correct answer: C. Three double bonds
- A. Three triple bonds
- B. Two double bonds
- C. Three double bonds
- D. No multiband
Explanation
Correct option is C. There are 3 double bonds in benzene. Six single bonds between Carbons and Hydrogens, three single bonds between six Carbons and Hydrogens ( alternatively) . Three double bonds present between carbons ( alternatively in hexagonal ring). So a total of nine single bonds, three double bonds are present in the benzene ring.

About Benzene and Aromatic Compounds
Benzene has a planar ring of delocalised π electrons, giving aromatic stability and equal carbon-carbon bond lengths. The topic covers resonance, electrophilic substitution reactions such as nitration, halogenation, sulphonation and Friedel-Crafts reactions, along with substituent effects and the distinction between substitution in benzene and addition in ordinary alkenes.
