The resonance energy is defined as the difference between the electronic energy of a real (conjugated) molecule and a hypothetical Kekuléé structure with localized bonds. The resonance energy of benzene is 36 kcal mol-1. To measure the resonance energy of benzene we start with the enthalpy of hydrogenation for cyclohexene, which is -28.6 kcal mol-1. The difference between the potential energy of the actual structure and that of the contributing structure with the lowest potential energy is called the resonance energy or delocalization energy. Benzene is an important organic chemical compound with the chemical formula C6H6.
