Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
A phenol associated with a vitamin is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
Those compounds which contain two or more
(b)
Interpretation:
A phenol associated with a disinfectant cleaner 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.
