Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
A phenol which is used as a disinfectant for cleaning walls is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
Those compounds which contain two or more
(b)
Interpretation:
A phenol which is used as an antiseptic found in some mouthwashes is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
Those compounds which contain two or more functional groups are known as polyfunctional compounds. Many organic compounds have complex structures which involve multiple rings and long carbon chains. The replacement of the hydrogen atom by an aromatic ring results in the formation of a compound known as phenol.
(c)
Interpretation:
A phenol which is used as antioxidant to prevent rancidity in foods is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
