B. SiO2
C. Al2O3
D. Sr2O

The chemical compound silicon dioxide, also known as silica (from the Latin silex), is an oxide of silicon with a chemical formula of SiO2 and has been known for its hardness since antiquity. Silica is most commonly found in nature as sand or quartz, as well as in the cell walls of diatoms.

Benzene gives mainly_________?

Benzene gives mainly_________?

A. Addition reaction
B. Substitution reactions
C. Halogenation
D. All of these

enzene is much more stable than expected.
The extra stability means that benzene will less readily undergo addition reactions. In benzene, the π-electrons are delocalised and makes the structure more stable. Thus, benzene does not give addition reactions because of resonance stabilisation.
The more loosely held electrons are open to attack by electrophiles. Hence, the characteristic reaction of benzene is electrophilic substitution.
Example: Nitration and Suphonation of Benzene. So it does not undergo Elimination reaction.
