phenol is more acidic because of the benzene ring present in the molecule,when you lose the H form the OH group it is possible to delocalise the charge around the aromatic system due to the pi electron cloud,straight chain alcohols cannot do this so it is less favourable to deprotonate them hance it is easier to deprotonate a phenol,hence we say it ...
Beer and wine are acidic. Distilled alcohol because of their increased concentration of the. -OH group in water are acidic but a little less than beer. It is relative to the proof as proof indicates a greater concentration of ethanol which is a slightly basic compound.thanol's hydroxyl causes the molecule to be slightly basic. It is however,so very slightly basic it is almost neutral, like pure water. The pH of 100% ethanol is 7.33, compared to 7.00 for pure water.
