Correct Answer - Option 3 : Benzene

Benzene is NOT correct.

  • Benzene is not carbon allotrope.
  • Diamond, graphite and fullerenes are three allotropes of pure carbon.

 

  • Allotropes are different structural forms of the same element and can exhibit quite different physical properties and chemical behaviours.
  • The change between allotropic forms is triggered by the same forces that affect other structures, i.e., pressure, light, and temperature.
  • Benzene is the organic compound with molecular formulae C6H6.
