Assertion : p-Nitrophenol gives more electrophilic substituted compound than m-methoxyphenol.
Reason : Methoxy group shows only negative I-effect.
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 both assertion and reason are false.
Which of the following compounds would not evolve CO2 when treated with NaHCO3 solution ?
salicylic acid
Phenol
anisole
phenyl benzoate
B.
Phenol
Phenol does not decompose sodium carbonate or sodium bicarbonate ie , CO2 is not evolved ,because phenol is a weaker acid than carbonic acid .
By heating phenol with chloroform in alkali , it is converted into :
salicylic acid
salicylaldehyde
anisole
phenyl benzoate
When a mixture of calcium benzoate and calcium acetate is dry distilled , the resulting compound is :
acetophenone
benzaldehyde
benzophenone
acetaldehyde
Cumene process is the most important commercial method for the manufacture of phenol. Cumene is
iso-propyl benzene
ethyl benzene
vinyl benzene
propyl benzene.
When phenol reacts with phthalic anhydride in presence of H2SO4 and heated and hot reaction mixture is poured in NaOH solution, then product formed is
alizarin
methyl orange
fluorescein
phenolphthalein.
In solvents like DMSO, acetonitrile, F- ion of dissolved NaF is more reactive than in methyl alcohol becasue
CH3OH is more polar than DMSO and CH3CN
CH3OH is less polar than DMSO and CH3CN
unsolvated F- ion is DMSO or CH3CN acts more efficiently as nucleophile
-OH group is a better leaving group than F- ion
