Answer

Full structural formula of Benzene is as follows:

Work Step by Step

Benzene ($C_{6}H_{6}$) is an aromatic compound. To draw its structural formula, 6 C atoms are placed in every point of a hexagonal. After that, we put three double bonds between C1 and C2, C3 and C4 & C5 and C6 positions. Remaining valency are filled with H. We get two structures from this point of view. Benzene is represented by combination of these two structures.
