Answer:
Phenols do not exhibit the same pka values as other alcohols;
They are generally more acidic.
Using the knowledge that hydrogen acidity is directly related to the stability of the anion formed, explain why phenol is more acidic than cyclohexane.
Explanation:
According to Bromsted=Lowry acid-base theory,
an acid is a substance that can release ions when dissolved in water.
So, acid is a proton donor.
If the conjugate base of an acid is more stable then, that acid is a strong acid.
In the case of phenol,
the phenoxide ion formed is stabilized by resonance.
The resonance in phenoxide ion is shown below:
Whereas in the case of cyclohexanol resonance is not possible.
So, cyclohexanol is a weak acid compared to phenol.
I think it is not possible to make cd without plastic . because except plastic no other material is so durable for making cd.
It would be 35.8 Calories or calories. Not sure about that part. Hope this helps though.
Reduction is the process by which eletrons are gained by an atom.
