Match List I with List II and select the correct option.

 

List I

List II

(P) CH₃CHO & PhCHO

(1) Br₂/H₂O test

(Q) CH₃CH₃ & HC≡CH

(2) Ammoniacal AgNO₃ test

(R) CH₃C≡CH & CH₃COCH₃

(3) Iodoform test

(S) CH₃CHO & CH₃COCH₃

(4) NaHSO₃ test

 

(5) Fehling test

 

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

P: acetaldehyde gives iodoform and Fehling tests; benzaldehyde does not. Q: acetylene decolourises bromine water and forms silver acetylide; ethane does neither. R: propyne gives bromine-water and silver-acetylide tests; acetone gives iodoform and bisulphite-adduct tests. S: both carbonyls give iodoform/bisulphite tests, but only acetaldehyde gives ammoniacal-silver and Fehling tests. Entry 2 is interpreted as ammoniacal . Correct matching option: A.
