Acidic equilibrium equation is:

HC6​H5​O(aq) + H2O(l) ⇌ H3O(aq) + C6H5O-(aq)

Explanation:

Step 1: Given: Acid is HC6H5O

Write acidic equilibrium equation including proper phase of all species

Step 2: Equilibrium reactions -: Reactant forms product and product reacts re-form reactants is called as equilibrium reactions.

Most of the acid base reactions are equilibrium reactions.

This reactions shown in double arrows , to indicate both forword reaction and reverse reaction takes place simultaneously.

Step 3: Equilibrium equation of given acid is

HC6H5O(aq)+H2O(l)⇌ H3O+(aq) +  C6H5O-(aq)

Step 4: Explanation -: phenol or carbolic aci is weak monoprotic acid is dissociates partially in aqueous solution. It reacts with water to form acidic hydronium ion and C6H5O- anion . Hence this is acidic equilibrium equation of phenol .

for C6H5O you have put a - sign at the very end.

I don't have a minus sign in my box

Your answer was right but I mixed up the subscripts because in yours its not shown as a subscript so I got confused
