Step 1: Addition of NaOH to obtain sodium phenoxide

Step 2: Sodium Phenoxide undergoes Kolbe's  reaction at high temperature and pressure in presence of carbon dioxide (CO2) gas.  The product is  further  hydrolysed  to obtain salicylic acid. 

Step 3: Acetylation of salicylic acid occur when it is treated with acetic anhydride

The reaction of alcohol with the conc. HCl and ZnCl2 (Lucas reagent) leads to the formation of a carbocation through SN1  mechanism. The more stable the carbocation, the faster the reaction will be.

Tertiary carbocation is the most stable due to hyperconjugation and inductive effect then is the secondary alcohol and the primary alcohol is the least stable.

Stability of carbocation:

Tertiary carbocation > Secondary carbocation  > Primary carbocation 

According to stability of carbocation, the reactivity order of the alcohol is:

Tertiary alcohol > Secondary alc

In  O? C? O, the dipole moment is zero, hence non-polar while in R—O—R the dipole moment is non-zero due to which it is polar.

The CO2 is a linear molecule and the dipole moment is equal and in the opposite direction due to which the dipole moment is zero. While in R—O—R, has bent structure and lone pair of electrons due to which the net dipole moment is nonzero and hence, it is a polar molecule.

Step 1: Protonation of alkene due to the presence of double bond which  attacks the H3O+ ion and forms carbocation. 

Step 2: Water molecule act as nucleophile and attack the carbocation. 

Step 3: Deprotonation occur to get the alcohol and hydronium ion forms

The C-OH bond in phenols has double bond character due to resonance  of electron pairs of oxygen atom with the pi electrons of phenyl ring, which makes the C-OH bond strong and hence, the  nucleophilic substitution of a nucleophile with the -OH group of alcohol is not possible as the C-OH does not break easily.

The electron pairs of oxygen atom of hydroxyl (-OH) group  in phenols are in conjugation with the pi electrons of phenyl ring and hence, the bond C-OH bond has double bond character due to which OH group in phenols more strongly held as compared to OH group in alcohols.

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

The decreasing order of acidity:

H2O > ROH >  HC ≡ CH 

The more the stability of the conjugate base of the given compounds, the more acidity will be.

? OH > ? O-R > ? C ≡ CH 

The negative charge on the electronegative oxygen atom is more stable than carbon atom. The + I effect of the alkyl group does not stabilize the negative charge on the electronegative oxygen atom, hence less stable than ? OH.
