What is the structure of benzene, including bond angles?
Corrie writes …… Benzene is a flat, regular hexagon of C-atoms, with all C to C bond lengths the same – shorter than a C-C bond but longer than a C=C bond. Both the C-C-C and C-C-H bond angles are all 120 degrees. Risk assessment Before attempting any practical work based on the advice and suggestions on this website, you must do the following.
