How does the structure of benzene differ from the cyclohexane structure?

The above structure is a benzene ring. Its chemical formula is##C_6 H_6##

The above structure is a cyclohexane ring. Its chemical formula is##C_6 H_12##
Some major differences in their structure include
• Benzene is an aromatic compound but cyclohexane is not aromatic.
• Benzene is an unsaturated molecule, but cyclohexane is saturated.
• Carbon atoms in the benzene ring have ##sp^2## hybridization where carbon atoms in the cyclohexane have ##sp^3## hybridization.
• Benzene has a planar structure whereas cyclohexane has chair conformations.
Benzene has alternate double bonds and alternate single bonds while cyclohexane has only single bonds
