A compound liberates CO2 with NaHCO3 and also gives colour with neutral FeCl3 solution. The compound can be (A)  (B)  (C)  (D)

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

The compound liberates CO2 with NaHCO3, so it contains - COOH group and it also gives colour with neutral FeCl3 solution, so it also contains a - OH group directly attached to the benzene ring (i.e., phenol). Hence, the structure of the compound is

Q. A compound liberates $C O_{2}$ with $N a H C O_{3}$ and also gives colour with neutral $F e C l_{3}$ solution. The compound can be

The compound liberates $C O_{2}$ with $N a H C O_{3},$ so it contains $- COO H$ group and it also gives colour with neutral $F e C l_{3}$ solution, so it also contains a $- O H$ group directly attached to the benzene ring (i.e., phenol). Hence, the structure of the compound is

Q. A compound liberates CO2​ with NaHCO3​ and also gives colour with neutral FeCl3​ solution. The compound can be

The compound liberates CO2​ with NaHCO3​, so it contains −COOH group and it also gives colour with neutral FeCl3​ solution, so it also contains a −OH group directly attached to the benzene ring (i.e., phenol). Hence, the structure of the compound is
