Solution

A.(5) B.(6) C.(4) D.(3) E.(1) F.(2)
A. IUPAC name of ethylene glycol is ethane -1, 2 - diol. It is primarily used as raw material in the manufacturing of polyester fibers and fabric industry. A small percentage of it is used in antifreeze formulations.
B. Ethanol is a good solvent for fatty and waxy substances Fats and waxes provide 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. HNO3

D. Methanol, CH3OH is also known as 'wood spirit' as it was produced by the destructive distillation of wood.
E. Neutral ferric chloride gives purple/red colour when treated with phenols. It is the reagent used for detection of a phenolic group.
F. Soaps are prepared by the reactions of fatty acid with NaOH.

This glycerol (propan -1, 2, 3 - triol) is the by-product of the soap industry and used in cosmetics.
