Question

The six carbon atoms of benzene are of:

• A. One type
• B. Two types
• C. Three types
• D. Four types

Answer 1

The correct option is A One type

In benzene, all C-C bonds are of equal length and bond length is $1.39A^0$ due to delocalization of bonds. All carbon atoms in benzene ring are $s{p}^2$ hybridised and are in one plane. Thus, all carbon atoms in benzene are of the same type.
