    The gaseous substance which decolourises bromine but does not give a precipitate with ammoniacal silver nitrate is:

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

    B)  \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{4}}\]

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

    D)  \[C{{H}_{4}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                     Unsaturated compounds like ethylene and acetylene decolourise \[\text{B}{{\text{r}}_{\text{2}}}\]water. Acetylene gives precipitate with ammoniacal \[\text{AgN}{{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}}\]but with ammoniacal \[\text{AgN}{{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}}\]ethylene do not give any reaction. \[\underset{CH}{\overset{CH}{\mathop{|\,|\,|}}}\,\xrightarrow{Ag{{(N{{H}_{3}})}_{2}}N{{O}_{3}}}\underset{C.Ag}{\overset{CH}{\mathop{|\,|\,|}}}\,\xrightarrow{Ag{{(N{{H}_{3}})}_{2}}N{{O}_{3}}}\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  \text{(white}\,\text{ppt)} \\  \text{Disilver}\,\text{acetylide} \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{\underset{C.Ag}{\overset{C.Ag}{\mathop{|\,|\,|}}}\,}}\,\]\[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{4}}\xrightarrow{Ag{{(N{{H}_{3}})}_{2}}N{{O}_{3}}}\]No reaction
