When coke is heated with lime (CaO), then CaC2(X) is formed which then reacts with water to form acetylene (Y) as a major product. This acetylene on passing over red hot iron at 873 K produces benzene (Z). <img class="img-fluid question-image" alt="image" src="https://cdn.tardigrade.in/img/question/chemistry/39940ec3393dec0a4c5a25cf56ba9c0f-.png" />
