Which of the following is aromatic in nature?

Correct answer: D. All of these

  • A. Anthracene
  • B. Naphthalene
  • C. Phenol
  • D. All of these

Explanation

Aromatic hydrocarbons containing two or more benzene rings in their molecules are called Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons. They may be divided into two main classes. Those in which benzene rings are isolated, e.g. biphenyl,diphenylmethane, etc.Those in which the benzene rings are fused together at ortho positions so that the adjacent rings have a common carbon to carbon bonds, e.g. naphthalene, phenanthrene,phenol and anthracene.

About Fundamental Principles of Organic Chemistry

Organic chemistry begins with carbon compounds classified by carbon skeleton, saturation and functional group. Work includes identifying groups such as hydroxyl, carbonyl, carboxyl and amino, applying basic nomenclature, and distinguishing structural, geometric and optical isomers, where the same molecular formula does not necessarily mean the same structure or properties.
