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.

What is the term for a liquid composed of polar molecules?

IrinaVladis [17]

A dissolving liquid composed of polar molecules is a polar solvent.

The distinction of polar and non-polar liquids is important because the like dissolves like rule. This rule states that the solubility is greater when the polarity of the liquid is similar to the polarity of the solute.

So, to dissolve polar compounds (e.g. ionic compounds) you should use polar solvents (e.g. water).

Answer: polar solvent
