Answer:
The Stability of the benzene decreases when a carbon is removed from a benzene.
Explanation:
The benzene is a Aromatic compound with six carbons and three double bonds in its structure.
When a carbon is removed from the Benzene, the ring breaks due to removal of the carbon that results to the Non-Aromaticity of a compound which decreases due to the reason that the stability order of the molecule is high in the aromatic compounds than the non aromatic compounds. as it destabilizes the compound after the removal of the carbon from benzene.
Stability Order: Aromatic compounds > Non Aromatic compounds
Therefore the Stability of the benzene decreases when a carbon is removed.
