Vedclass · Answer

(A) $1$. Compound $'P'$ is phenol $(C_6H_5OH)$.$2$. Nitration of phenol with dil. $HNO_3$ gives a mixture of $o$-nitrophenol and $p$-nitrophenol.$3$. $o$-Nitrophenol shows intramolecular $H$-bonding and is steam volatile,while $p$-nitrophenol shows intermolecular $H$-bonding and is not steam volatile.$4$. Reaction of phenol with conc. $HNO_3$ yields $2,4,6$-trinitrophenol,commonly known as picric acid.$5$. The chemical formula of picric acid is $C_6H_3N_3O_7$.$6$. The number of oxygen atoms in picric acid $('C')$ is $7$.
