Phenols are more acidic than alcohols becauseA. phenols are more soluble in water than alcohols are.B. the phenoxide ion is stabilized by resona-nce but resonance is not possible in the alkoxide ion.C. resonance stabilization in the phenoxide ion is greater than that in the alkoxide ion.D. phenol are stabilized by resonance but alcohol are not.

Answer» Correct Answer - B
Resonance is not possible in alcohols `(ROH)` as well as alkoxide ions. Moreover, with alcoholes, there is no such factor stabilizing the alkoxide anion `(RO^(-))` relative to the alcohols itself. Resonance is possible both in the phenols and phenoxide ions but phenoxide ions are more effeictively resonance stabilized than corresponding pehnols.

Although phenoxide ion has more number of resonating structures than carboxylate ion, carboxylic acid is a stronger than phenol. Why ?A. the relative resonance stabilization of the carboxylate ion over carboxylic acid is much greater than the relative resonance stabilization of the phenoxide ion over phenol.B. a carboxylic acid has a greater resonance stabilization than a phenol.C. the carboxylate ion is more resonace-stabilized than the the phenoxide ion.D. A carboxylic acid can form a dimer by intermolecular hydrogen bonding but a phenol cannot.

Answer» Correct Answer - A
Delocalization of the negative charge in the carboxylate anion involves equivalent resonance structures of identical energy content. Moreover, the negative charge is identical energy content.Moreover, the negative charge is `100%` shared by the two highly electronegative `O` atoms, On the other hand, in phenoxide anion. the resonance structure are not. equivalent. The structure involving negative charge on the benzene `C` are higher energy than those in which it is on oxygen.
The relative stabilizartion of the anion, with respect to the undissociated molecule, is thus likely to be less effective with a phenol than with a carboxylic acid, leading to the lower acidic sternth of the former.
