Multiple Choice QuestionsGiven are cyclohexanol (I), acetic acid (II), 2,4,6-trinitropenol (III) and phenol (IV). In these, the order of decreasing acidic character will be
III > II> IV> I
II > III> I > IV
II > III> IV> I
II > III> IV> I
Which one of the following compounds has the most acidic nature?
B.
The presence of electron withdrawing substituent increases the acidity while electron releasing substituent, when present, decrease the acidity.
Phenyl is an electron withdrawing substituent while -CH3 is an electron releasing substituent, Moreover, phenoxide ion is more resonance stabilised as compared to benzoyl oxide ion, thus, release proton more easily. That's why is a strong acid among the given.
Among the following four compounds
A) Phenol
B) Methyl Phenol
C) meta - nitrophenol
D) para-nitrophenol
the acidity order is
D > C > A > B
C > D > A> B
A > D > C > B
A > D > C > B
Consider the following reaction,
the product,Z,is
toluene
benzaldehyde
benzoic acid
benzoic acid
The order of decreasing reactivity towards an electrophilic reagent, for the following:
i) Benzene
ii) Toluene
iii) Chlorobenzene
iv) Phenol
would be:
(i) > (ii) > (iii) > (iv)
(ii) > (iv) > (i) > (iii)
(iv) > (iii) > (ii) >(i)
(iv) > (iii) > (ii) >(i)
