Q. Which of the following compound would not evolve $CO_2$ when treated with $NaHCO_3$ solution ?

KCETKCET 2006Aldehydes Ketones and Carboxylic Acids

Solution:

Phenol does not decompose sodium carbonate or sodium bicarbonate i.e., $CO _{2}$ is not evolved, because phenol is a weaker acid than carbonic acid.
