Although benzene is highly unsaturated it does not undergo addition reactions. The explanation of this can be suggested asA. `pi`-electrons of benzene ring are delocalisedB. since `pi`-electrons are present inside the ring, addition cannot take placeC. cyclic structures do not show addition reactionsD. benzene is not a reactive compound.

1.	Although benzene is highly unsaturated it does not undergo addition reactions. The explanation of this can be suggested asA. `pi`-electrons of benzene ring are delocalisedB. since `pi`-electrons are present inside the ring, addition cannot take placeC. cyclic structures do not show addition reactionsD. benzene is not a reactive compound.
Answer» Correct Answer - A `pi`-electrons of benzene ring are delocalised throughout the molecule. This makes the molecule very stable. The stability resists breaking of double bond for addition.
