What is the axmen classification for benzene (c6h6)?

Theclassification for each carbon in benzene is .

Further explanation:

VSEPR Theory:

The VSEPR theory is also known as valence shell electron pair repulsion theory. This theory is used to determine the geometry of a central atom or ion. It is based on the repulsion between bond pairs and lone pair in the valence shell of the central atom.

The classification is used to expresses the geometry of the central atom in VSEPR theory. In classification, A is a central atom, X is covalent bond, E is the lone pair, m is the total number of covalent bond present on central atom, and n is the total number of lone pair present on central atom.

Since classification is only calculated for the central atoms and benzene contains 6 central carbon atoms thus we can calculate classification of each central carbon atom.

In benzene, each carbon atom has 4 valence electrons. These 4 valence electron is are used in forming 3 covalent bonds, one C-H single bond, one C-C single bond, and one C=C double bond. Therefore, the value of m is 3. There is no lone pair on any central carbon atom thus the value of n is zero.

Therefore the configuration for each carbon in benzene is .
