What is the ratio of \[\pi \]-and \[\sigma \]-bonds in benzene?

A)  \[1:4\]                                 

B)  \[2:1\] 

C)  \[1:1\]                                 

D)  \[2:2\]  

Correct Answer: A

Solution :

                \[3\pi \]-and \[12\sigma \]-bonds are present in benzene. Hence, the ratio of n and a-bonds in benzene is \[3:12\]or \[1:4\].
