Answer:

The name IUPAC prefers is Benzene but the compound can have alternate names like Cyclohexa-1,3,5-triene but the correct IUPAC name will always be Benzene.

Explanation:

The ring is of 6 carbons so the secondary prefix 'Cyclo-' and the word root 'hexa'

Double bonds present at 1,3 and 5th position so the primary suffix is

1,3,5-triene
