Question

Do "aromatic" alcohols release hydrogen gas with sodium

Answer 1

$\huge\red{Answer }$

Alcohols are only slightly weaker acids than water, with a K a value of approximately 1 × 10 −16. The reaction of ethanol with sodiummetal (a base) produces sodium ethoxide and hydrogen gas. This reaction is identical to the reaction of sodium metal with water.
