Why does cyclohexanol have a pKa of 18 and phenol, despite its similarities in structure, have a pKa of 10?
◦ Phenol has a resonance-stabilized conjugate base, which increases the stability of the base and favors its formation
◦ Cycohexanol has a resonance-stabilized conjugate base, which increases the stability of the base and favors its formation
◦ Cycohexanol has a resonance-stabilized structure, which increases its stability and reduces the likelihood that it will react to form a conjugate base
◦ Phenol has a resonance-stabilized conjugate base, which decreases the stability of the base and favors its formation
◦ Phenol has a resonance-stabilized conjugate base, which decreases the stability of the base and inhibits its formation
