The correct order of acidic strength of the following compounds:
$A.$ Phenol
$B.$ Cresol
$C.$ $m-$Nitrophenol
$D.$ $p-$Nitrophenol

Given below are two statements:
Statement $I$: Bromination of phenol in solvent with low polarity such as $CHCl_3$ or $CS_2$ requires Lewis acid catalyst.
Statement $II$: The Lewis acid catalyst polarises the bromine to generate $Br^{+}$.
In the light of the above statements,choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Phenol in the presence of sodium hydroxide reacts with chloroform to form salicylaldehyde. This reaction is known as:

The structure of the compound that gives a tribromo derivative on treatment with bromine water is

The major product formed in the following reaction is:

An organic compound $A$ with empirical formula $C_6H_6O$ gives a sooty flame on burning. Its reaction with bromine solution in a low polarity solvent results in a high yield of $B$. $B$ is:
