Answer:

Ph-OH

Explanation:

Nitration of Aromatic compounds is an example for Aromatic Electrophilic substitution and its rate is enhanced by Electron donating group like OMe, OH, alkyl group and halides (least activating group) while reactivity is diminished by electron withdrawing like CN,NO2 and Ketone etc

Hence phenol is more reactive than benzene towards nitration.

A compound has a molar mass of 90. grams per mole and the empirical formula CH2O. What is the molecular formula of this compound

k0ka [10]

Answer:

C₃H₆O₃

Explanation:

Data:

EF = CH₂O

MM = 90. g/mol

Calculations:

EF Mass = (12.01 + 2.016 + 16.00) u = 30.03 u

The molecular formula is an integral multiple of the empirical formula.

MF = (EF)ₙ

$n = \dfrac{\text{MF Mass}}{\text{EF Mass }} = \dfrac{\text{90. u}}{\text{30.03 u}} = 3.00 \approx 3$

MF = (CH₂O)₃ = C₃H₆O₃
