Which of the following statements is not true about alcohols?

• Lower alochols have fiery taste and strong smell.

• As molecular mass increases the boiling point increases.

• Lower alcohols are water insoluble and their solubility increases with molecular weight.

• Lower alcohols are water soluble and their solubility decreases with molecular weight.

Assertion: o-Nitrophenol is more volatile than p-nitrophenol.

Reason : Intramolecular hydrogen bonding is present in o-nitrophenol while intermolecular H - bonding is in p-nitrophenol.

• If both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.

• If both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.

• If Assertion is true but Reason is false.

• If Assertion is false but Reason is true.

Assertion: Phenol is a weaker acid than ethanol.
Reason: Groups with +M effect and -I effect decrease acidity at m-position.

• If both assertion and reason are true and reason is a correct explanation of the assertion.

• If both the assertion and reason are true but the reason is not a correct explanation of the assertion.

• If the assertion is true but the reason is false.

• If both the assertion and reason are false.

Assertion: Ethers behave as bases in the presence of mineral acids.

Reason: It is due to the presence of a lone pair of electrons on the oxygen.

• If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is a correct explanation of the assertion.

• If both the assertion and reason are true but the reason is not a correct explanation of the assertion.

• If the assertion is true but the reason is false.

• If both the assertion and reason are false.

• 

• 

• 

When phenol is treated with D₂SO₄ /D₂O, some of the hydrogens get exchanged. The final product in this exchange reaction is

The correct order of decreasing acidity of nitrophenols will be:

• m-nitrophenol > p-nitrophenol > o-nitrophenol

• o-nitrophenol > m-nitrophenol > p-nitrophenol

• p-nitrophenol > m-nitrophenol > o-nitrophenol

• p-nitrophenol > o-nitrophenol > m-nitrophenol
