Want this question answered?
The triiodomethane (iodoform) reaction of phenol involves the conversion of phenol to iodoform in the presence of iodine and sodium hydroxide. The reaction proceeds through oxidation of phenol to benzoic acid, followed by further oxidation and degradation to iodoform. This reaction is commonly used as a test for the presence of a methyl group attached to a phenolic compound.
Yes, at room temperature bromine reacts with phenol and forms 2,4,6-tribromo phenol.
Phenol is not dissolved in a sodium hydroxide solution; having the characteristics of a weak acid phenol react with NaOH.
reaction b/w phenol and zinc yield benzene by reduction.
NO!! Oxygen-Carbon Bond in phenol has double bond character in it due to resonance, which is hard to break.
Yes

what is the chemical equation when phenol react with hydrochloric acid
No they don't react together. but phenol is soluble in CHCl3.
Yes, at room temperature bromine reacts with phenol and forms 2,4,6-tribromo phenol.
An iodoform reaction is the type of reaction when acetone reacts with triiodomethane.
There is no reaction between phenol and sodium carbonate
Phenol is not dissolved in a sodium hydroxide solution; having the characteristics of a weak acid phenol react with NaOH.
CaCl2 will NOT react with phenol red (an weakly acidic pH-indicator) and baking soda HCO3- ions.
Phenol is so weakly acidic that it cannot react with metals low in the electrochemical series. Also, phenol reacts only with Sodium metal and no other. Hence, it does not react with Magnesium at room temperature.
Phenol + 3Br2 = 2,4,6-tribromophenol + 3HBr Everything you need to know :) http://www.chemguide.co.uk/organicprops/phenol/ring.html
