Three molecules of acetylene are required for the formation of benzene.
- Process Description
• The formation of benzene is done by passing all the three alkyne molecules through a red hot iron tube or either glass tube.
• All the three molecules of alkyne subsequently lead under the process of condensation trimerization for the formation of benzene.
• This whole process/method of conversion is also called as polymerization or cyclic polymerization.

Three molecules of acetylene are required to form benzene.
Explanation:
- Acetylene is a compound which consists of two carbon atoms which are joined by triple Bond. The number of carbon atom in Benzene is 6.
- Hence the number of acetylene that is required to produce benzene is 3. Acetylene undergoes a cyclic polymerization at a very high temperature of 873 Kelvin.
- The catalyst in this reaction is red hot iron tube. Acetylene is converted into the six carbon benzene.
- This process is used in the industries to produce benzene on a large scale.
