Assertion : Phenol undergoes Kolbe reaction whereas ethanol does not. Reason : Phenoxide ion is more basic than ethoxide ion.
1 Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation of the Assertion.
2 Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation of the Assertion.
3 Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
4 Assertion is incorrect but Reason is correct.
Explanation:
Phenol is a stronger acid than ethanol due to the resonance stabilization of the phenoxide ion, resulting in increased stability compared to the ethoxide ion formed from ethanol. When acid is strong it's conjugate base is weak. So ethoxide is more basic than phenoxide. So the option (3) is correct.
