A student performed the reaction in this experiment using a water bath at 90°C instead of 50°C. The final product was tested for the presence of phenols with ferric chloride. This test was negative (no color observed); however, the melting point of the dry product was 122–125°C. Explain these results as completely as possible.

The table compares the number of electrons in two unknown neutral atoms. comparison of electrons atom number of electrons a 9 d 11 use this information to determine the number of valence electrons in the atoms. which of the following correctly compares the stability of tthe table compares the number of electrons in two unknown neutral atoms. comparison of electrons atom number of electrons a 9 d 11 use this information to determine the number of valence electrons in the atoms. which of the following correctly compares the stability of the two atoms? both are unreactive. both are highly reactive. a is unreactive and d is reactive. a is reactive and d is unreactive.
