    The document outlines weekly learning outcomes for students regarding arenes and aromatic compounds. It covers defining arenes and aromatics, depicting benzene structure through models, evidence for benzene's delocalized structure model, electrophilic substitution reactions of arenes with nitric acid and halogens, and mechanisms of electrophilic substitution and mononitration/monohalogenation of benzene. It also covers relative resistance of bromination of benzene vs alkenes, reactions of phenol with alkalis and sodium, its role as an early antiseptic, bromination of phenol, relative ease of bromination of phenol vs benzene, and uses of phenols.
