Just so, what is Phenolate ion?

Description: Phenolate is a phenolate anion that is the conjugate base of phenol obtained by deprotonation of the OH group. It has a role as a human xenobiotic metabolite. It is a conjugate base of a phenol. ChEBI.

Beside above, why is Phenoxide ion more stable than Alkoxide ion? Hence phenoxide ion is more stable than phenol. Answer: The phenoxide ion is a WEAKER base than alkoxide ion, because the phenoxide ion is resonance stabilized, and requires less solvation. Phenoxide, thus causes less solvent ORDER upon deprotonation, and its acidity is entropically favoured.

Furthermore, which is more acidic phenol or phenoxide ion?

Acidity is the tendency to lose H⁺ ion. Since phenol has the tendency to lose its proton and form phenoxide ion. It is more acidic than phenoxide as this ion is stablised by resonance. While phenoxide ion has no tendency to lose any proton.

Is Phenoxide ion aromatic?

I read that technically it isn't aromatic because it violates some arcane rule, but I can't find any references in the literature. has a system of conjugated p-orbitals. has 4n+2 pi electrons: 2 from the oxygen lone pair that is delocalized and n = 0.
