    Butyne-land butyne-2 can be distinguished by

    A)  \[{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\]         

    B)  \[AgN{{O}_{3}}+N{{H}_{4}}OH\]

    C)  \[{{K}_{2}}C{{r}_{2}}{{O}_{7}}\]        

    D)  \[N{{H}_{4}}OH\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     Butyne-1,has the terminal hydrogen atom which reacts with anunoniacal silver nitrate easily and gives the white precipitate of silver acetylide, \[2C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}C\equiv CH+A{{g}_{2}}O\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}\] \[\underset{white\text{ }ppt.}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}C\equiv CAg}}\,+{{H}_{2}}O\] But butyne-2 does not give this reaction. Hence, butyne-1 and butyne-2 are distinguished by\[AgN{{O}_{3}}+N{{H}_{4}}OH\]
