The preferred alkyl halide for the synthesis of ether in Williamson synthesis is:

The compound having the lowest boiling point is:

Potassium permanganate reagent is used for :

1. Oxidation of primary alcohol to carboxylic acid.
2. Oxidation of primary alcohol to aldehyde.
3. Bromination of phenol to 2,4,6-tribromophenol.

The group that activates the benzene ring towards electrophilic substitution reaction is:

Phenol is more acidic than ethanol due to:

1. Resonance

2. Phenoxide ions 

3. Less -I effect

4. More ability to gain a proton
