Answer 1

Explanation:

Sodium Benzoate + Sodalime: This is a decarboxylation reaction. Heating sodium benzoate with sodalime removes the carboxyl group to produce benzene.

n-hexane + Mo₂O₃(773 K, 10-20 atm.): This is catalytic reforming (aromatization). n-hexane undergoes cyclization and dehydrogenation to form benzene.

Ethyne + Red hot iron tube (873 K): This is the cyclic trimerization of ethyne (acetylene). Three molecules of ethyne combine to form benzene.

Benzene Diazonium Chloride + H₂O (warm): When benzene diazonium chloride is warmed with water, it undergoes hydrolysis to produce phenol (C₆H₅OH), nitrogen gas, and HCl.
