Chemistry Question on Phenols

The products of combustion of an aliphatic thiol (RSH) at 298 K are

A

CO2(g),H2O(g){CO_2(g),H_2O(g)} and SO2(g){ SO_2(g)}

B

CO2(g),H2O(l){ CO_2(g),H_2O(l)} and SO2(g){ SO_2(g)}

C

CO2(l),H2O(l){CO_2(l),H_2O(l)} and SO2(g){ SO_2(g)}

D

CO2(g),H2O(l){CO_2(g),H_2O(l)} and SO2(l){ SO_2(l)}

Answer

CO2(g),H2O(l){ CO_2(g),H_2O(l)} and SO2(g){ SO_2(g)}

Explanation

Solution

Thiol, RSH, on combustion produces CO2(g),SO2(g)CO_2 (g), SO_2 (g) and H2O(l)H_2O(l). At 298K,H2O298 K,\: H_2O will be in liquid phase
