Aniline can be separated from phenol usingA. `Na_(2)CO_(3)`B. `NaNO_(2) + HCl` at `0^(@) C`C. `NaCl`D. Acidified `KMnO_(4)`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
Aniline and phenol can be separated by adding `NaNO_(2) + HCl` as aniline forms diazonium salt anilinium chloride, while phenol does not. Hence, choice (b) is correct. Choice (a) is incorrect because `Na_(2)CO_(3)` neither reacts with aniline nor with phenol. Choice (c ) is incorrect because `NaCl` does not react with phenol. Choice (d) is incorrect because `KMnO_(4)` oxidies both aniline and phenol.
