Question
A diluted solution (4.8 % w/v) of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol is employed as antiseptic.
✓
Answer
- 2,4,6-Trichlorophenol (TCP) is more potent antiseptic than phenol.
- It has low corrosive effects as compared to phenol, if used in lower concentrations.
Hence, diluted solution (4.8% w/v) of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol is used as antiseptic.
