Q

Why is phenol more reactive than benzene

A

the lone pair on the O from the OH donates electron to pi system.
More electron dense in one place.

Q

why is benzene less reactive than cyclohexene

A

benzene pi system is less electron dense in one place. hexene is very dense in one place, double bond. induces dipole.

Q

why was the kekulè model of benzene wrong

A

Doesnt react with bromine water (no colour change)

Enthalpy changes of hydrogenation compared to cyclohexene

Bond lengths (double bonds shorter)
