A) Fehlings solution
B) \[{{I}_{2}}/NaOH\]
C) Tollens reagent
D) carbonic acid
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
Due to the presence of \[{{H}_{3}}C-\overset{O}{\mathop{\overset{||}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,-\] group, acetaldehyde \[({{H}_{3}}C-\overset{O}{\mathop{\overset{||}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,-H)\] and acetone \[({{H}_{3}}C-\overset{O}{\mathop{\overset{||}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,-C{{H}_{3}})\] react with iodine in sodium hydroxide to give yellow ppt of iodoform. \[C{{H}_{3}}CHO+3{{I}_{2}}+3NaOH\xrightarrow{{}}\] \[C{{l}_{3}}CHO+3NaI+3{{H}_{2}}O\] \[C{{H}_{3}}CHO+NaOH\xrightarrow{{}}\underset{Iodofrom}{\mathop{CH{{I}_{3}}}}\,+HCOONa\] \[C{{H}_{3}}COC{{H}_{3}}+3{{I}_{2}}+3NaOH\xrightarrow{{}}\] \[C{{l}_{3}}COC{{H}_{3}}+3NaI+3{{H}_{2}}O\] \[C{{l}_{3}}CO{{H}_{3}}+NaOH\xrightarrow{{}}\underset{Iodofrom}{\mathop{CH{{I}_{3}}}}\,+C{{H}_{3}}COONa\]You need to login to perform this action.
