For the following reactions: (A) CH3CH2CH2Br+KOH→CH3CH=CH2+KBr+H2OCH_3CH_2CH_2Br + KOH \rightarrow CH_3CH=CH_2 + KBr + H_2O Which of the following statements is correct? (A) is elimination (B) and (C) are substitution reactions. (A) is substitution (B) and (C) are addition reactions. (A) and (B) are elimination reactions and (C) is addition reaction. (A) is elimination (B) is substitution and (C) is addition reaction.

Multiple Choice Options

  • A (A) is elimination, (B) and (C) are substitution reactions.
  • B (A) is substitution, (B) and (C) are addition reactions.
  • C (A) and (B) are elimination reactions and (C) is addition reaction.
  • D (A) is elimination, (B) is substitution and (C) is addition reaction.

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

(A) Saturated compound is converted into unsaturated compound by removal of group of atoms hence, it is an elimination reaction. (B) �Br group is replaced by �OH group hence, it is a substitution reaction. (C) Addition of Br 2 converts an unsaturated compound into a saturated compound hence, it is an addition reaction.
