o -nitrophenol is more volatile than para-nitrophenol due to -

Options

  1. Aintramolecular H -bonding in o -nitrophenol and intermolecular H -bonding in p -nitrophenol
  2. Bintermolecular H -bonding in o -nitrophenol and intramolecular H -bonding in p -nitrophenol
  3. Cmore stronger intramolecular H -bonding in o -nitrophenol as compared to p -nitrophenol
  4. Dmore stronger intermolecular H -bonding in o -nitrophenol as compared to p -nitrophenol

Correct answer

A. intramolecular H -bonding in o -nitrophenol and intermolecular H -bonding in p -nitrophenol

Step-by-step solution

Intramolecular H -bond intermolecular H -bond and steam volatile and boiling p t . is higher.
