Question
Identify that the following compound is insoluble, partially soluble and highly soluble in water.
phenol
Options
Insoluble
Partially soluble
Highly soluble
Solution
Partially soluble
Explanation:
Phenol (C6H5OH) has the polar group −OH and the non-polar group −C6H5. Thus, phenol is partially soluble in water.
