Which of the following statements are correct for phenol? (A) In general, phenol is more acidic than alcohol. (B) Phenol is used in the production of melamine plastic. (C) Phenol gives violet colour with neutral ferric chloride solution. (D) Phenol when heated with acetyl chloride gives phenetole.
- A
- B
- C
- D
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Phenol is more acidic than alcohols due to stabilisation of phenoxide ion through resonance. Melamine ( or formaldehyde melamine polymer) is obtained from condensation polymerisation of melamine with formaldehyde. Phenol reacts with neutral FeCl3 solution to give violet colour…
