What amount of bromine will be required to convert $2 \mathrm{~g}$ of phenol into $2,4,6$ -tribromophenol?

What amount of bromine will be required to convert $2 \mathrm{~g}$ of phenol into $2,4,6$ -tribromophenol?
  1. $4.0$
  2. $6.0$
  3. $10.22$
  4. $20.44$

Solution



Thus $94 \mathrm{~g}$ of phenol require $\mathrm{Br}_{2}=480 \mathrm{~g}$
$2 \mathrm{~g}$ of phenol require $\mathrm{Br}_{2}=\frac{480}{94} \times 2=10.22 \mathrm{~g}$ .
