Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

(d)

                                     Benzoquinone

Step 1: Benzoquinone

It can also be called para quinone as the two oxygen groups are present at a para position to each other. It is an organic compound with a molecular formula  C₆H₄O_2.

Step 2: d) Skeletal structure of benzoquinone

The skeletal structure of benzoquinone shows the hetero atom oxygen bonded to the ring system through a double bond which is shown as follows:
