Assertion : Hydrolysis of ethyl acetate in the presence of acid is a reaction of first order whereas in presence of alkali, it is reaction of second order. Reason : Acid only acts as a catalyst whereas alkali acts as one of the reactants.

Assertion: Alcohols have higher boiling points than ethers of comparable molecular masses. Reason: Alcohols and ethers are isomeric in nature.

Assertion: Ethers are not prepared by the dehydration of secondary and tertiary alcohols. Reason : In the secondary and tertiary alcohols elimination competes over substitution during dehydration, alkenes are easily formed.

Assertion : Alcohols and water are weaker acids than phenols. Reason : The delocalisation of negative charge makes the phenoxide ion more stable and favour the ionisation of phenol.

Assertion : Bromination of phenol takes place even in the absence of Lewis acid. Reason : In phenol, OH group attached to benzene ring has highly deactivating effect.
