(B) When anisole $(C_6H_5OCH_3)$ is heated with dilute sulfuric acid $(H_2SO_4)$ under pressure,it undergoes acid-catalyzed hydrolysis. The reaction is as follows: $C_6H_5OCH_3 + H_2O \xrightarrow{H^+, \Delta} C_6H_5OH + CH_3OH$ Thus,the products obtained are phenol $(C_6H_5OH)$ and methanol $(CH_3OH)$.
