The false statement regarding the phenol molecule is C) Phenol is non-aromatic in nature.
- Phenol is an organic compound with the molecular formula C₆H₅OH.
- It exists as a white/colorless crystalline solid at room temperature.
- All the carbon atoms in it are sp² hybridized.
- The -OH group is directly attached to the benzene ring through a C-O bond.
- Phenol is aromatic in nature as it has an aromatic benzene ring. It follows Huckel's rule.
- Phenol is a weak acid because the conjugate base formed after donating a proton is stabilized by resonance.
