Bottles containing and lost their original labels. They were labelled A and B for testing. A and B were separately taken in test tubes and boiled with NaOH solution. The end solution in each tube was made acidic with dilute and then some solution was added. Substance B give a yellow precipitate. Which one of the following statements is true for this experiment?
Options:
Answer:
A
Solution:
* Benzyl iodide reacts with NaOH giving NaI, which with AgNO₃ forms yellow AgI ppt.
* Aryl iodide (C₆H₅I) does not react with NaOH.
* Since B gives yellow ppt, B = C₆H₅CH₂I and A = C₆H₅I
* Hence option (a) is correct.
