Chemical properties of ethanol and phenol (QUESTIONS)
« on: July 05, 2007, 10:02:08 AM »
1)Compare the reactivity between ethanol and phenol. Explain your answer.

2) Write down the equation for each test for both ethanol and phenol (if possible).

3) Discuss briefly about each tests.

4) Which tests (two) distinguish between ethanol and phenol?

Try to solve this.  ;)

1) Ethanol  -  gets you drunk.  Phenol  - kills you.
2) Ethanol + Person = sillyness.    Phenol + Person = Corpse.
3) The first test is fun and you get plesently drunk.  The second will kill you.
4)   Take two people - give each 250ml to drink. The one that lives but is very drunk has had the ethanol... ;D
