Homework Statement
The question actually contains a diagram but i don't understand how to draw it, so i'll try to describe it in words.
A solution contains phenol, acetic acid, aniline and nitrobenzene. Na2CO3 is added into the solution and two layers are formed: aqueous layer A and ethereal layer X. Then NaOH is added into ethereal layer X, two layers are formed: aqueous layer B and ethereal layer Y. At last, dilute HCl is added into ethereal layer Y and aqueous layer C and ethereal layer D is formed. The question is, identify the correct combinations of compound A, B, C and D.
