Question 8. 
Check the aromaticity of following structures 
RBSE Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 13 Hydrocarbons 38
Answer: 
According to Huckel's rule those compounds are aromatic in which (4n + 2)л electrons participate in delocalisation. (These electrons can be lone pair also) 
(here n = 0, 1, 2 any whole number). 
(1) RBSE Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 13 Hydrocarbons 38-1

here number of delocalised л electrons are 4 + 2 = 6 
According to Huckel issule (4 × 1 + 2) = 6 hence it is aromatic. 

(2) RBSE Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 13 Hydrocarbons 38-2

here number of delocalised e 5 × 2 = 10π 
According to Huckel's rule (4 × 2 + 2) = 10π hence it is aromatic. 

(3) RBSE Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 13 Hydrocarbons 38-3

number of e participating in delocalisation is: = 4+2=6 
According to Huckel's rule (4 ×1+ 2) = 6 so it is also aromatic. 

(4) RBSE Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 13 Hydrocarbons 38-4

number of e participating in delocalisation = 4 
According to Huckel's (4 ×1+ 2) = 6 Hence it is not aromatic.
