Benzaldehyde or C6H5CHO would not undergo the aldol condensation because it does not contain an alpha-hydrogen in its structure. Aldol condensation is a type of reaction that happens between an enolate and an aldehyde or ketone leading to a alkene that has a planar structure. The lack of an alpha-hydrogen would not allow for it to undergo such process since it cannot enolize. Benzaldehyde undergoes a nucleophilic reaction known as Claisen-Schmidt condensation. It has somehow same mechanism of the aldol reaction however, the nucleophilic attack on the carbonyl happens even without the alpha-hydrogen but with an enolate that is from a ketone.
What you have to do is balance the chemical equations to make sure everything is even on both sides. If you want me to help you answer the questions comment back

Answer:
Noble gases
Explanation:
Neon and argon have 8 electrons in their outermost shells. The elements which have 8 electrons in the outermost shell or in the valence shell,are known as the noble gases.
