Thermosetting polymer, Bakeline is formed by the reaction of phenol with

A

`CH_(3)CH_(2)CHO `

B

`CH_(3)CHO`

C

`HCHO`

D

`HCOOH`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Bakelite is a thermosetting plastic formed by reaction of phenol with HCHO in the presence of conc. `H_(2)SO_(4)`

It is a cross-linked polymer , condensation taking place at o- and p- positions. Thus , HCHO is the other reactant .
