The major organic product in the reaction, CH3 — O — CH(CH3)2 + HI → Product is  [2006]

Detailed Solution for 31 Year NEET Previous Year Questions: Alcohols, Phenols & Ethers - Question 15

First HI will break into H+ and I-. Then H+ attacks on ether to form CH3O+HCH(CH3)2
Being an excellent nucleophile, I- attacks where it is easy to attack and so it will go for less bulky CH3 to form CH3I and (CH3)2CHOH.

The ionization constant of phenol is higher than that of ethanol because : [2000]

Detailed Solution for 31 Year NEET Previous Year Questions: Alcohols, Phenols & Ethers - Question 21

The acidic nature of phenol is due to the formation of stable phenoxide ion in solution

The phenoxide ion is stable due to resonance.

The negative charge is delocalized in the benzene ring which is a stabilizing factor in the phenoxide ion and increase acidity of phenol. wheras no resonance is possible in alkoxide ions (RO)derived from alcohol. The negative charge is localized on oxygen atom.
Thus, alcohols are not acidic.

31 Year NEET Previous Year Questions: Alcohols, Phenols & Ethers - Question 26

Increasing order of acid strength among p-methoxyphenol, p-methylphenol and p-nitrophenol is [1993]

Detailed Solution for 31 Year NEET Previous Year Questions: Alcohols, Phenols & Ethers - Question 26

Electron-donating groups (– OCH3, – CH3 etc.) tend to decrease and electron withdrawing groups (– NO2, – OCH3 etc.) tend to increase the acidic character of phenols. Since – OCH3 is a more powerful electron-donating group than – CH3 group, therefore, p-methylphenol is slightly more acidic than p-methoxyphenol while pnitrophenol is the strongest acid. Thus, option (d), i.e. p-methoxyphenol, pmethylphenol, p-nitrophenol is correct.
