Chemistry - ALCOHOL & ETHER Question with Solution | TestHub

Question Explanation: Matching the given phenols (Column I) with the reactions they undergo (Column II).

Concept: Acidity and Chemical Reactions

Solution:

(i) Compounds which are more acidic than ${\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}$ will react with NaOH

(ii) Compounds which are more acidic than ${\mathrm{H}}_2{\mathrm{CO}}_3$ will give ${\mathrm{NaHCO}}_3$ test

(iii) Compounds having acidic hydrogen gives acid-base reaction with NaH(Base)

(iv) Compounds having acidic hydrogen/active hydrogen gives ${\mathrm{H}}_2$ gas on reaction with Na(metal)

(v) Compounds which are more acidic than ${\mathrm{NH}}_3$ will react with ${\mathrm{NaNH}}_2$
