Why is picric acid is more acidic than phenol?

Picric acid is 2,4,6-trinitro phenol, the nitro groups are electrons withdrawing groups so are responsible to make the bond weaker between oxygen and hydrogen atoms and increase the acidic strength as compare to phenol.


What is in the bonding of nitrogenous bases?

The bases from one strand form hydrogen bonds with the bases on the other strand. Adenine forms two H-bonds with thymine. Cytosine forms three H-bonds with guanine.


What is the only organic acid without COOH group?

There are several organic acids without COOH group , example is carbolic acid , a phenol, picric acid which is 2,4,6 tri-nitro phenol, barbituric acid, ascorbic acid etc


How do you convert chloro benzene to p-nitro phenol?

I'd do it this way. Use Dow's Process (NaOH) to convert chlorobenzene to phenol. Now, use nitrating mixture to get both o and p- nitrophenol. Fractional distillation should give you what you finally need.


Why is Ortho nitro phenol are more acidic than ortho methoxy phenol?

acid strength is- p-nitrphenol>o-nitrophenol>m-nitrophenol nitro group has both -R effect and -I effect but -M effect prdominates over -I effect ...-No2 group at o and p position withdraws electron of o-h bond towards it by stronger -R effect while the No2 group at m position withdraws electron of o-h bond by weaker -I effect ....thus o and p nitrophenols are more acidic than m- nitrophenol... however o- nitrophenol is little less acidic than p-nitrophenol due to intramolecular h-bonding which makes loss of proton little more difficult..........so para nitrophenol is strongest....

How do you separate ortho and para nitro phenol?

by steam distillation as o-nitrophenol is volatile due to intra-molecular hydrogen bonding, SYNCRO, GKP


Why p-nitrophenol has higher solubility in water than o-nitrophenol?

the ortho position is the key to the answer of this question. in this case the NO2 and OH group are neighbors and thus can interact via intramolecular bonding this on the other hand decreases the overall polarity of the molecule. when a molecule is less polar it travels faster through a polar adsorbent than a highly polar molecule.


Why para-nitro acetanilide is insoluble in water whereas ortho-nitro acetanilide is soluble in water?

p-nitro phenol has a symmetric structure as compare to o-nitro phenol so it has higher dipole moment or polarity so is more soluble.

Which is more acidic phenol or para-chloro phenol?

Phenol. Anisole doesn't have any acidic protons.

What is more polar 4-nitrophenylaceto nitrile or -nitrophenylacetic acid?

4-nitrophenol is more polar than phenol by the inductive effect. NO2 has a dipole that pulls electrons away from the oxygen on hydoxyl group, thus increasing the polarity between H+ and O-. It also makes phenol more acidic, as the phenol hydrogen can come off a lot more easier. On a side note, the position of the nitro group also plays in polarity. When it is placed in the 3-position (meta), the nitro group can now participate in resonance with the benzene ring, whereas position 2+4 (ortho and para, respectively) can't break bonds to participate in resonance. Therefore, the polarity and acidity would increase in this manner: phenol > 4-nitrophenol > 2-nitrophenol > 3-nitrophenol.
