If the calculated and the experimental heats of combustion of benzene are 824.1 and 789.1 `kcal *mol^(-1)` respectively, then calculate the value of resonance energy of benzene.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Resonance energy = calculated heat of combustion-experimental heat of combustion
`=(824,1-789.1)k cal.mol^(-1)=35 kcal .mol^(-1)`.
