If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion. If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion. If assertion is true but reason is false. If the assertion and reason both are false. If assertion is false but reason is true.
Assertion Reason Assertion Reason Assertion Reason Assertion (c) : Phenol is more reactive than benzene towards electrophilic substitution reaction : In the case of phenol, the intermediate carbocation is more resonance stabilized : : : : : or Phenol undergo Kolbe reaction, ethanol does not. Phenoxide ion is more basic than ethoxide ion. Lucas reagent is a mixture of anhydrous ZnCl2 and concentrate HCl Primary alcohol produce ppt. with Lucas reagents. Resorcinol turns FeCl 2 solution purple. will undergoes a Friedel Crafts

(c) Correct order of dehydration in alcohols 3 > 2 > 1. 9. It is correct that phenol is more reactive than benzene. 10. (c) It is correct that sodium phenoxide (sodium salt of phenol) and CO 2 on heating from sodium salicylate. This is known as Kolbes reaction. Ethanol does not respond to this reaction. Therefore, assertion is true. But the reason that phenoxide ion is more basic than ethoxide ion is not correct. 11. (c)Lucas reagent is a mixture of anhydrous ZnCl2 and coc. HCl is used for the distinction of monohydric alcohol. Tertiary alcohols on addition produce a precipitate immediately while secondary alcohols produce ppt. after 5 minutes. Primary alcohols do not produce any precipitate. Therefore, assertion is true but reason is false. 12. (a) Phenols on treatment with neutral FeCl 3 solution produce purple colour, resorcinol contains phenolic group hence in treatment with FeCl 3 solution it gives purple colour. Here both assertion and reason are correct and reason is a correct explanation of assertion.
