Chapter 9, Problem 9.5P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Ionic and covalent structures other than kekule structures of benzene have to be drawn. Also reason for ignoring these structures has to be given.

Concept Introduction:

There were many structures introduced for benzene before kekule’s structure. These are ignored because the molecule prefers the low energy state structure.

There will be wave functions corresponds to every molecules and the energy corresponds to these wav function can be calculated from the Schrödinger’s equation as follows,

Hψ=Eψ
