A) it undergoes esterification with carboxylic acid
B) it reacts with ammonia
C) it forms yellow crystals of iodoform
D) it liberates \[{{H}_{2}}\] with Na metal.
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
lodoform test is given by those compounds which has \[C{{H}_{3}}-\underset{\begin{smallmatrix} || \\ O \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C}}\,-C/H\] or \[C{{H}_{3}}-\underset{\begin{smallmatrix} | \\ OH \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{CH}}\,-\]units. Hence, this test is not given by phenol \[({{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}}-OH)\]
