compounds.
(i)
C6H§COCI
(ii)
C,H$CH2OH
(iii)
C6H$CONHCH3
Benzoic acid, Ph-COOH (C6H5CO2H), is not soluble in water while it dissolves in ether (diethyl ether), (CH3CH2)2O. Yet upon treatment with sodium hydroxide, benzoic acid turns hydrophilic and dissolves in water.
Provide chemical explanation of this observation.
