  2. B \(o -\) Toluidine
  3. C Benzamide
  4. D \(m -\) Cresol
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(m -\) Cresol

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Oletic acid is also soluble in \(NaHCO_3\) \(o\,-\) toluidine is not soluble in \(NaOH\) as well as \(NaHCO_3\) Benzamide is also not soluble in \(NaOH\) and \(NaHCO_3\). \(\therefore \) \(m\,-\) cresol is the right answer.
