Cresol, a type of aromatic organic compound, has limited solubility in water. It is more soluble than other aromatic compounds due to its hydroxyl (-OH) group, which can form hydrogen bonds with water molecules. However, its overall solubility is still relatively low, making it more soluble in organic solvents.

What pH is Cresol?

All three isomers are very weak acids, pKa values varying from 10.26 (o- and p-cresol) to 10.09 (for m-cresol). This means that 1.00 M (standard) solutions in water have pH values of 5.13 to 5.05 (at 25oC).


Which is more acidic o-cresol or p-cresol?

o-Cresol is more acidic than p-cresol due to the presence of a hydroxyl group at the ortho position, which stabilizes the anionic form through resonance. This resonance delocalization enhances the acidity of o-cresol compared to p-cresol.
