Which of the following compound would not evolve \(\mathrm{CO}_{2}\) when treated with \(\mathrm{NaHCO}_{3}\) solution?
- A Salicylic acid
- B Phenol
- C Benzoic acid
- D 4-nitro benzoic acid
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) Phenol
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Phenol does not decompose sodium bicarbonate \(\left(\mathrm{NaHCO}_{3}\right)\) as it is a weaker acid than carbonic acid. \(\therefore \mathrm{CO}_{2}\) gas is not evolved by phenol.
