MCQ
Assertion (A): Overlapping in benzene is $sp ^2- sp ^2$ type.
Reason (R): C-C bond length in benzene is $1.3 \stackrel{\circ}{A}$.
  • A
    Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
  • B
    Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
  • A is true but R is false.
  • D
    Both A and R are false.

Answer

Correct option: C.
A is true but R is false.
(c) A is true but R is false.
Explanation: C-C bond length in benzene is $1.39 \stackrel{o}{A}$ which is greater than C=C bond length of $1.34 \stackrel{o}{A}$ and less than C-C bond length of $1.54 \stackrel{\circ}{A}$.
