Question

What will be the product when Benzene burnt in excess quantity of oxygen?

• A. only $C{O}_2$
• B. $H_{2}O$
• C. $C{O}_2$ & $H_{2}O$
• D. $CO$ & $C$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $C{O}_2$ & $H_{2}O$

$2C_6{H}_6+{15O_2}_{\left(\text{excess}\right)}\to C{O}_2\left(g\right)+6H_{2}O$

Benzene burns in excess of oxygen to give carbon dioxide and water vapour.

Hence, the correct option is $\text{C}$
