Chemistry-Properties of Phenols
NEET Chemistry Properties of Phenols Match the Following Question
Type: Match the Following-match the column-Medium-Class 12
Match Column-I with Column-II.
Column-I Column-II (a) 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (i) Less acidic than phenol (b) Phenol (ii) Most acidic among phenols (c) 3-nitrophenol (iii) More acidic than ethanol (d) Ethanol (iv) Less acidic than 3-nitrophenol
Choose the correct matching:
A
a-ii, b-iii, c-iv, d-i
B
a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv
C
a-iv, b-ii, c-i, d-iii
D
a-ii, b-i, c-iii, d-iv
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
2,4,6-trinitrophenol is the most acidic among phenols due to the strong electron-withdrawing effect of the nitro groups. Phenol is more acidic than ethanol but less acidic than 2,4,6-trinitrophenol, and 3-nitrophenol is more acidic than ethanol but less than 2,4,6-trinitrophenol.
