Write about the physical properties of benzene.
(N/A) $1$. Odour: Benzene has a characteristic aromatic odour.
$2$. Solubility: Benzene is non-polar,therefore it is insoluble in water but miscible with organic solvents.
$3$. Colour: Benzene is a colourless liquid.
$4$. Physical state: Benzene exists as a liquid at room temperature.
$5$. Combustion: Benzene is highly combustible and burns with a sooty flame due to its high carbon content.
