There are --- resonance structures available in Benzene.
Correct answer: B. Two
- A. One
- B. Two
- C. Three
- D. Six
Explanation
There are 2 resonance structures available in benzene. Benzene's cyclic structure with alternating single and double bonds allows for two resonance structures to be most acceptable. The other options are incorrect because benzene does not have one, three, or six resonance structures based on its molecular structure.

About Chemistry of Hydrocarbons
Hydrocarbons are studied through the structures and reactions of alkanes, alkenes, alkynes and aromatic compounds. Coverage includes free radical substitution in alkanes, electrophilic addition to carbon-carbon multiple bonds, benzene substitution, aromatic stability and the difference between addition reactions of alkenes and substitution reactions of benzene.
