Solution :A. IUPAC name of ethylene glycol is ethane -1,2 - diol. It is PRIMARY used as raw material in the manufacturing of polyester fibers and febric industry. A small percentage of it is used in anitfreeze fomulations.
B. Ethanol is a good solvent for fatty and waxy substances. Fats and waxes privide ODOUR to the perfumes. Apart from being a good solvent, it is less irritating to the skin. So, it is used in perfumes.
C. Phenol is converted into picric acid (2, 4, 6-trinitro-phenol) by the reaction of phenol with conc. `HNO_(3)`

D. Methanol, `CH_(3)OH` is also known as 'wood spirit' as it was produced by the destructive distillation of wood.
E. Neutral ferric chloride give purple/red colour when treated with phenols. It is the reagent used for detection of phenolic group.
F. Soaps are prepared by the REACTIONS of fatty acid with `NaOH`.

* The following emf SERIES is obtained by following `E^(@)` value

* Any half cell reaction : A+`e^(-)toB`
experiencing reduction`to`PRODUCT of reduction.
oxidizing agent`to`reducing agent.
(A) `F_(2)` : is non-metal and `E^(@)` is maximum. So `F_(2)` is REDUCED easily and is strongest oxidizing agent.
(B) Li : is metal, apart from this Au is another metal. Between these two metals Li has high `E^(@)` value so Li is strongest oxidizng agent.
(C) `Au^(3+)` is metal ion. it has high reduction potential and so `Au^(3+)` is oxidizing agent.
(D) `Br^(-)` is negative ion. Oxidation half reaction:
`Br^(-) to (1)/(2)Br` So, oxidation of `Br^(-)` is occur.
`3Br^(-) to (3)/(2)Br_(2)+3e^(-)` (Oxidation) `E^(THETA)=1.09V`
`Au^(3+)+3e^(-) to Au` (Reduction) `E^(Theta)=1.4V`
(E) Au is inert metal because all metals have high `E^(@)` value.
(F) `Li^(+)` is metal ions and standard reduction potential is `E^(@)` is low -3.5 V and so it is weak oxidizing agent.
(G) `F^(-)` is negative ion and its oxidation `F^(-) to F_(2)` and so `F^(-)` is reducing agent and `E^(@)` is maximum so it is weak reducing agent.
