MCQ
Given below are two statements.

Statement $I :$ Phenols are weakly acidic.

Statement $II :$ Therefore they are freely soluble in $NaOH$ solution and are weaker acids than alcohols and water.

Choose the most appropriate option

  • A
    Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are correct.
  • B
    Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are incorrect.
  • Statement $I$ is correct but Statement $II$ is incorrect.
  • D
    Statement $I$ is incorrect but Statement $I I$ is correct.

Answer

Correct option: C.
Statement $I$ is correct but Statement $II$ is incorrect.
c
Phenol are weakly acidic. Phenol is more acidic than alcohol and $H _{2} O$ statement $(I)$ is correct. $(II)$ is incorrect.
