The benzene molecule is unsaturated but the double bonds present inside the benzene ring are delocalized due to bond resonance (pi structure). This makes the double bonds of benzene much less reactive then more discreet double bonds (as in ethylene). This structure makes it behave more like a saturated compound, preferring substitution reactions over addition reactions. It is resistant to addition reactions across the double bond because such a reaction reduces the resonance stabilization energy. However, when reactions do occur, resonance stability is almost always re-established (Birch Reduction reactions are exceptions. See related link).
As posed, the question makes no sense on several levels. Benzene is not saturated although it is far less reactive than would be expected for an unsaturated compound due to delocalisation of the electrons. I am unsure what you mean by asking if saturation and "unsaturation" are the same.
This is a phenyl group linked to an aldehyde.
Fractional distillation is commonly used to separate benzene from a mixture of benzene and methyl benzene. Benzene has a lower boiling point compared to methyl benzene, allowing it to be separated by distillation based on the difference in their boiling points.
The melting point of Benzene is 5.5 and its Boiling point is 80.1. So, Below 5.5 , Benzene is a solid. Between 5.5 and 80.1 Its a liquid. After 80.1 Benzene is a Gas..
Benzene has two resonance structures. In the resonance hybrid, each carbon-carbon bond is a hybrid of a single bond and a double bond, resulting in a delocalized pi electron system. This delocalization gives benzene its unique stability and reactivity compared to typical alkenes.
There is a benzene ring.So it is unsaturated.
Aniline is an unsaturated compound as it contains a benzene ring, which is a form of unsaturation due to the delocalized pi electron system.
Benzene is considered unsaturated because it contains a ring of carbon atoms with alternating single and double bonds. While each carbon atom is technically bonded to four other atoms, the delocalized electrons in the ring create a structure with properties that are characteristic of unsaturated compounds.

it forms a planar hexagonal structure due to delocalized pi electrons, known as aromaticity. This unique property makes benzene stable and resistant to addition reactions, leading to its distinct reactivity compared to typical unsaturated hydrocarbons.
Xylene is an aromatic hydrocarbon and is considered unsaturated due to its presence of a benzene ring, which contains alternating double bonds. The chemical structure of xylene (C8H10) includes two methyl groups attached to a benzene ring, contributing to its unsaturated nature. Therefore, xylene does not have the maximum number of hydrogen atoms that a saturated hydrocarbon would have.
No!! Benzene wont de colourise bromine water although it is an unsaturated compound ,as it is an aromatic compound and it does not undergo addition reaction.
A benzvalene is a highly reactive tricyclic unsaturated hydrocarbon, tricyclo[3.1-0.02,6]hex-3-ene, which is a valence isomer of benzene.
This is a phenyl group linked to an aldehyde.
That depends what the monomer is. Most unsaturated monomers are manufactured commercially from crude oil. Ethene, for instance, is made by cracking the gas oil fraction of crude oil. Vinyl chloride is then made from ethene. Styrene is made from benzene and ethene.
Benzoic acid is unsaturated because it has double- double carbon bonds and due to resonance those bonds can be easily move around , that's what makes benzoic acid unique. All compounds containing a benzene ring are actually unsaturated.
Benzene is commonly used as an additive in gasoline to increase octane levels and improve engine performance. However, due to its carcinogenic properties, there is a move towards reducing or eliminating benzene in gasoline blends for health and environmental reasons.
