Two aromatic compounds having formula C(...

Two aromatic compounds having formula `C_(7)H_(8) O` which are easily identified by `FeCl_(3)` solution test (violet colouration ) are `,`

A

o-cresol and benzyl alcohol

B

mj-cresol and p-cresol

C

o-cresol and p-cresol

D

methyl phenyl ether and benzyl alcohol

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

o-Cresol is a phenol and hence gives violet colourr with `FeCl_(3)` while benzyl alcohol being an alcohol does not.
