Is benzene the same as benzoate?

No. Bensene and Benzoate are not the same. Benzene has the formula C6H6 (a ring of 6 carbons, each with a hydrogen bonded to it), and benzoate has the formula C6H5COO−. Benzoate is a benzene molecule that has a carboxylic acid group attached to it (except that the acid group is deprotonated). Benzoate is the conjugate base of benzoic acid. See the Web Links to the left of this answer for more information.
