    Which of the following reacts with \[KMn{{O}_{4}}\]but does not react with\[AgN{{O}_{3}}\]?

    A) \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{6}}\]                    

    B) \[C{{H}_{4}}\]

    C) \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{4}}\]    

    D)        \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Key Idea: (i) Alkene and alkynes both react with \[KMn{{O}_{4}}\]and decolorize it.                (ii) Only alkynes react with \[\text{AgN}{{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}}\text{ } & \]to give while precipitate.                 \[\underset{alkane}{\mathop{\underset{(a)}{\mathop{\underset{{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{6}}}{\mathop{H-\underset{H}{\overset{H}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\overset{|}{\mathop{C}}}\,}}}\,-\underset{H}{\overset{H}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\overset{|}{\mathop{C}}}\,}}}\,-H}}\,}}\,}}\,\]                              \[\underset{alkane}{\mathop{\underset{(b)}{\mathop{\underset{C{{H}_{4}}}{\mathop{H-\underset{H}{\overset{H}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\overset{|}{\mathop{C}}}\,}}}\,-H}}\,}}\,}}\,\]                 \[\underset{\text{alkene}}{\mathop{\underset{(c)}{\mathop{\underset{{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{4}}}{\mathop{H-\overset{H}{\mathop{\overset{|}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,=\overset{H}{\mathop{\overset{|}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,-H}}\,}}\,}}\,\]     \[\underset{alkyne}{\mathop{\underset{(d)}{\mathop{\underset{{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{2}}}{\mathop{H-C\equiv C-H}}\,}}\,}}\,\] \[\therefore \] \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{4}}\](an alkene) reacts with \[KMn{{O}_{4}}\]and decolorizes it and does riot react with \[AgN{{O}_{3}}.{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{6}}\]and \[C{{H}_{4}}\]are alkane they do not react with \[KMn{{O}_{4}}\]and \[AgN{{O}_{3}}.\]
