-
Student Learning Outcomes:
Upon completion of this module, students you will be able to:
- Estimate the length of the carbon-carbon bonds in benzene, and compare this length with those of bonds found in other hydrocarbons.
- Apply the heat of hydrogenation data to show that benzene is more stable than cyclohexatriene.
- Describe the geometry and structure of the benzene molecule in terms of resonance.
- Apply the molecular orbital theory/ diagram to describe the structure of benzene.
