Complete the following reaction in detailed

Styrene (shown below) has 8 n electrons but is aromatic. Why?

Which one of the following statements from Chapter 8 and 18 is FALSE? O For a compound to be classified as aromatic, it must have an odd number of pairs of r-electrons and must be fully conjugated, cyclic and planar. O Inclusion of heteroatoms as part of the conjugated ring system renders the molecule to be considered non-aromatic. O Benzene is a six-membered ring where the r-electrons are equally shared across all six carbons in the ring and thus it possesses 36 kcal/mol of resonance stabilization energy. O All EAS reactions follow the same three mechanistic steps: (1) generate the electrophile, (2) capture the electrophile to give a carbocation intermediate, and (3) loss of a proton to regain aromaticity.
