Huckel's rule is used to recognize aromatic compounds. From the list below, select the values that satisfy Huckel's rule.
The concept used to solve this problem is based on Huckel\u2019s rule.
Aromatic compounds are made up of cyclic, planar molecules with a ring of resonance bonds. These molecules exhibit more stability than other arrangements with the same set of atoms. In organic chemistry, Huckel\u2019s rule is used in estimating the aromaticity of a planar ring molecule.
The Huckel\u2019s rule is followed when the cyclic molecule has electrons. The number of
electrons in the molecule
are calculated as:
