General Description:
Phenol, also known as carbolic acid, is an aromatic organic compound with the chemical formula C6H6O. It is a white crystalline solid that has a distinct sweet, medicinal odor. Phenol is derived from benzene through a process called hydroxylation.
One of the notable characteristics of phenol is its ability to act as both a weak acid and a weak base. It readily donates a hydrogen ion (H+) in solution, making it slightly acidic. Phenol is soluble in water, alcohol, and ether.
