7. When benzene diazonium chloride is heated with water it will form phenol. This reaction shows the nucleophilic substitution
reaction on the Diazonium group.
8. CrO3, Pyridine and HCl

9. In phenol, C-O bond acquires partial double bond character due to resonance while, in alcohol, C-O bond has single bond
character.
10. The order of increasing boiling points is as follows:
a. Methanol, ethanol, propan-1-ol, butan-2-ol, butan-1-ol, pentan-1-ol.
b. n-Butane, ethoxyethane, pentanal, nd pentane-1-ol.

12. Add neutral FeCl3 solution, phenol gives violet colour whereas benzoic acid does not.
13. Ortho nitrophenol is much more volatile in steam due to chelation. Intramolecular hydrogen bonding is present in o-nitrophenol
and intermolecular hydrogen bonding in p-nitrophenol.
