Answered by ankitraj829467

Explanation:

Preparation of benzene from aromatic acids

Benzene can be prepared from aromatic acids through decarboxylation reaction. In this process, sodium salt of the benzoic acid (sodium benzoate) is heated with soda lime to produce benzene along with sodium carbonate.

Phenol is an aromatic organic compound with the molecular formula C₆H₅OH. It is a white crystalline solid that is volatile. The molecule consists of a phenyl group bonded to a hydroxy group. It is mildly acidic and requires careful handling due to its propensity for causing chemical burns.
