NEET Chemistry Properties of Phenols Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
| Column-I | Column-II |
|---|---|
| (a) Reaction with sodium | (i) Produces sodium phenoxide |
| (b) Reaction with water | (ii) Shows acidic nature |
| (c) Reaction with Grignard reagents | (iii) Forms alcohols |
| (d) Reaction with dilute acids | (iv) Hydrolyzes diazonium salts |
a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv
a-ii, b-i, c-iv, d-iii
a-iv, b-iii, c-i, d-ii
a-iii, b-iv, c-ii, d-i
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Phenols react with sodium to produce sodium phenoxide (a-i), react with water to demonstrate their acidic nature (b-ii), Grignard reagents lead to the formation of alcohols (c-iii), and diazonium salts hydrolyze when treated with dilute acids (d-iv). This aligns with the properties of phenols as indicated in the NCERT context.
