Because phenol (C6H5OH) is less acidic than a carboxylic acid, it can be deprotonated by NaOH but not by the weaker base NaHCO3. Using this information, write out an extraction sequence that can be used to separate C6H5OH from cyclohexanol. Show what compound is present in each layer at each stage of the process, and if it is present in its neutral or ionic form.
