Phenol can be prepared by the reaction between

Given data:It is given to identify from which reagents phenol can be prepared.

Explanation:

Phenol is the end product of the reaction between chlorobenzene and solid NaOH. . Here, the chlorobenzene's chlorine ion is replaced by the hydroxide ion, resulting in the production of phenol. But this reaction occurs at 623K

Hence, correct option is: (D) ${\mathrm{C}}_6{\mathrm{H}}_5{\mathrm{SO}}_3\mathrm{Na} \mathrm{and} \mathrm{NaOH} \mathrm{at} 523 -623\mathrm{K} \mathrm{followed} \mathrm{by} \mathrm{acidification}$
