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
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)
D.
(iv) > (iii) > (ii) >(i)
Benzene having any activating group i.e, OH, R etc., undergoes electrophilic substitution very easily as compared to benzene itself. Thus toluene (C6H5CH3), phenol (C6H5OH) undergo electrophilic substitution very readily than benzene.Chlorine with +E and +M effect deactivating the ring due to strong -I effect. So, it is difficult to carry out the substitution in chlorobenzene than in benzene, so correct order is
Phenol > Toluene > Benzene > Chlorobenzene
