Benzene is a molecule with a structure consisting of 6 carbon atoms arranged in a hexagon, with a hydrogen atom bonded to each vertex. The hexagonal carbon structure is called a "benzene ring", and is present in many organic molecules, with other atoms of molecules bonded to the vertices in place of one or more of benzene's hydrogens.

Benzene is a cyclic unsaturated hydrocarbon (Molecular formula C6H6) whose 3 C-C double bonds occur in alternate position causing it to be resonance stabilized.

benzene is an aromatic hydrocarbon having chemical formula-c6h6..
its a cyclic compound with 3 alternate double bonds..
though it has 3 double bonds still it is very stable because of the phenomenon of resonance....in it every carbon is sp2 hybridized
