Vedclass · Answer

(A) When benzene is oxidized by air in the presence of $V_2O_5$ at $773 \ K$,it undergoes catalytic oxidation to form maleic acid,which subsequently loses a water molecule to form maleic anhydride.The reaction is as follows:$C_6H_6 + \frac{9}{2} O_2$ $\xrightarrow{V_2O_5, 773 \ K} 	ext{Maleic acid}$ $\xrightarrow{\Delta, -H_2O} 	ext{Maleic anhydride}$
