100 × 139.0 g [1]

The yield is 27% = 0.94

b greater reactivity of phenol/the ring is activated because … lone-pair from oxygen atom is delocalised into the ring [1] so electron density (of the ring) is increased [1] so electrophiles are more attracted (to the ring)/dipole in electrophile more easily

induced [1] (NOT just more easily ‘attacked’ or ‘susceptible’)
