A) \[C{{H}_{3}}COC{{H}_{3}}\]
B) \[C{{H}_{3}}COOH\]
C) \[PC{{l}_{5}}\]
D) \[C{{H}_{3}}CHO\]
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
\[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}OH\] reacts with \[C{{H}_{3}}COOH\] and gives ethylethanoate. Which is an ester and it has fruity smell. \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}OH+C{{H}_{3}}COOH\xrightarrow{conc.\,\,{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}}\]\[\underset{\begin{smallmatrix} \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,Ester \\ (Fruity\,\,smell) \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}COO{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}}}\,+{{H}_{2}}O\]You need to login to perform this action.
