It is acidic and contain -OH
It reacts with Na to give phenoxide
It reacts with both Na and Zn to give phenoxide and benzene respectively
Both (a) and (c)
Which of the following has lowest boiling point?

m -nitrophenol
o-nitrophenol
Phenol
One mole of an organic compound A with the formula C3H8O reacts completely with two moles of HI to form X and Y. When Y is boiled with aqueous alkali, it forms Z . Z answers the iodoform test. The compound A is
propan -2- ol
propan - 1- ol
ethoxyethane
methoxyethane
The main product (P) is
C6H5OC2H5
C2H5OC2H5
C6H5OC6H5
C6H5.I
B.
C2H5OC2H5
Since, C6H5O- is a weaker nucelophile than C2H5O-, therefore, the stronger nucleophile, i.e. C2H5O- will attack on C2H5I to give diethyl ether.
(i) C6H5OH + C2H5O- → C6H5O- + C2H5OH
(ii) C2H5O- + CH3.CH2.I → CH3CH2-O-CH2CH3

Butan-1-ol
Butan-2-ol
Both (a) and (b)
None of the above
