Why phenol is stronger acid than ethanol?
phenol is aromatic compound stabilized by resonance where as ethanol is aliphatic
What is more stronger acetic acid or ethanol?
Acetic acid is a stronger acid. Ethanol is an alcohol which is slightly acidic but usually neutral in nature.
What increase absorbance of phenol in ethanol?
Increasing the amount of phenol in the solution
Can you get phenol from carbolic acid?
Carbolic acid is another name for Phenol.
What are two tests distinguish between ethanol and phenol?
with water ethanol is soluble while methane is in soluble

Which is strong acid water or phenol?
Both water and phenol are very weak acids. Though phenol is the stronger of the two.
Compare the reactivity between ethanol and phenol?
Reactivity in general between the two is quite difficult to compare since the aromatic ring of phenol is able to undergo reactions which ethanol isn't and vice versa. However, there are a number of reactions which can be compared. The first of these is deprotonation, affecting the acidity of the alcohol. Since the subsequent negative charge on the oxygen is stabilised over the benzene ring, phenol is significantly more acid than ethanol (about 100,000 times). Nuclephilic substitution with the alcohol as the nucleophile is likely to be slightly quicker using phenol due to this easier deprotonation creating a stronger nucleophile than the ethanol. Another common reaction is nucleophilic substitution with the alcohol as the electrophile, which occurs fairly easily to ethanol in the presence of an acid. Phenol however, due to its ring, cannot easily react in the same way.

The lower the phenol coefficient is the stronger the disinfectant is?
No,, the higher the phenol coefficient the stronger the disinfectant

Which among cyclohexane DCM ethanol phenol benzoic acid ethyl acetate and ethyl amine exhibits strongest interactive forces at room temperature?
secret -a
Example of an organic compound?
methane, ethanol, butanone, ethanoic acid, phenol. man, everything around you is organic. u urself are an organic compound, pal.
Which is a stronger acid cresol or phenol?
Phenol is more acidic because cresol has +I effect of CH3 grup as you know acidity is reciprocal of +I effect. OR Cresol has electron donating methyl group, whih reduces its electron defficiency of the phenol group and hence acidity.
What are two tests distinguish between ethanol and phenol?
with water ethanol is soluble while methane is in soluble
Is phenol an acid?
It is a acid.But a weak acid.
