Answer» Correct Answer - C
`ArOH`. Specifically, `Ar` is a phenyl ring for phenols . The compound with the specific name phenol is `C_(6)H_(5)OH`.Naphthols are phenolic -type compounds where `Ar` is a naphthyl ring `(NapOH)`.
Alcohols have an `OH` bonded to an `sp^(3)` hybridized carbon `(-underset(|)overset(|)(C)-OH)`.Enols have an `OH` bonded to a vinyl group `(-overset(|)(C)=overset(|)(C)-OH)`.
