Is alcohol more soluble in benzene or alkane?

Alcohol is not that soluble in either benzene or alkane. This is because they are both nonpolar and it is polar.


What products contain benzene?

Benzene is a natural component of fuels such as gasoline, and additional benzene is sometimes added to increase the octane rating of gasoline. Benzene was widely used as a solvent in chemical laboratories, but has mostly been replaced by toluene for this function in the years since the ability of benzene to cause cancer was demonstrated. For this reason it has also largely been removed from consumer products. Benzene continues to be used as a raw materials in the manufacture of other chemicals, such as styrene, phenol and cyclohexane. In these applications, when used efficiently, the finished product is essentially free of benzene. Benzene is also used in the manufacture of rubber, lubricants, dyes, detergents, drugs, explosives and pesticides.

Does Polystyrene contain benzene rings?

Yes (and no!) The styrene molecule is a benzene ring with a -CH=CH2 group attached. In the polymerisation process, the double bonds in two adjacent groups are broken and joined to form a chain: -CH-CH2-CH-CH2-CH-CH2-CH-CH2-....... with a benzene ring off each -CH- group. I believe the benzene group is referred to as a "phenyl group" in complex molecules, such as polymers like polystyrene.
