Lewis structures for C6H6O?

Does anyone know the two different dot diagrams for this compound?

4 Answers

I figured it out using the Wikipedia page another member provided. One structure is heptagonal, with the O as the element at the top, simply added into the structure from C6H6. Free electrons are added as needed.The other is hexagonal, with the O simply added to the H on that end, forming hydroxide. Another name for this structure is C6H5OH.... Show More
