2 What is benzene?

3 Benzene an organic chemical compound an organic chemical compound a colorless and flammable liquid with a pleasant, sweet smell a colorless and flammable liquid with a pleasant, sweet smell a known carcinogen a known carcinogen a component of gasoline a component of gasoline production of drugs,plastics, synthetic rubber, and dyes production of drugs,plastics, synthetic rubber, and dyes flammable - hořlavý flammable - hořlavý

4 History was discovered in 1825 by the English scientist Michael Faraday was discovered in 1825 by the English scientist Michael Faraday he isolated it from oil gas and gave it the name bicarburet of hydrogen. he isolated it from oil gas and gave it the name bicarburet of hydrogen. In1833, the German chemist Eilhard Mitscherlich produced it by the distillation of benzoic acid and lime. In1833, the German chemist Eilhard Mitscherlich produced it by the distillation of benzoic acid and lime.
