Answer:

2) The phospholipid head groups would likely have equal numbers of positively and negatively charged groups that would pack well and not be bulky.

Explanation:

Benzene contains aromatic groups making it non-polar while the phopholipid head contains the negatively charged phosphate group making it polar. These molecules would repel each other forcing the phopholipid head to be in the inner membrane forming. The hydrophobic non-polar phospholipid tail would form hydrophobic bonds with benzene. The phospholipid head would likely have equal numbers of positively and negatively charged groups that would allow them to form ion-ion interactions helping them pack well and not be bulky. If the heads were still negatively charged they would likely repel each other and be disordered.
