Phenol has activating ( electron releasing ) $$–OH$$ group and bromine water supplies $$B{r^ + }\,ion$$ easily, hence under such conditions reaction does not stop at monobromo or dibromo stage but a fully brominated ( 2, 4, 6, - tribromophenol ) compound is the final product.

Vapours of an alcohol $$X$$ when passed over hot reduced copper, produce an alkene, the alcohol is
The order of stability of benzyl carbocations is :
The electron withdrawing effect of $$ - N{O_2}$$ group is greater than that of $$- Cl$$ group.
Thus, the correct increasing order of reactivity with $$HBr/HCl$$ is : (ii) < (iii) < (i).
