1. C2H5OH and C2H5Cl
2. C2H5Cl and C2H5ONa
3. C3H7OH and CH3CH2CH2OCl
4. C4H9OH and C4H9OCl
Compound that is not an alcohol-
1. CH2=CHCH2OH
2. CH2OHCH2OH
3. C6H5CH2OH
4. C6H5OH
The boiling point of p-nitrophenol is higher than that of o-nitrophenol because -
1. NO2 group at p-position behaves in a different way from that at o-position.
2. Intramolecular hydrogen bonding exists in p-nitrophenol.
3. There is intermolecular hydrogen bonding in p-nitrophenol.
4. p-Nitrophenol has a higher molecular weight than o-nitrophenol.
