MCQ
Which concept best explains that $o-$nitrophenol is more volatile than $p-$nitrophenol
  • A
    Resonance
  • B
    Hyperconjugation
  • Hydrogen bonding
  • D
    Steric hindrence

Answer

Correct option: C.
Hydrogen bonding
(c) $o-$Nitrophenol has intramolecular hydrogen bonding but $p-$Nitrophenol has intermolecular hydrogen bonding so boiling point of $p-$Nitrophenol is more than $o-$Nitrophenol.
