Consider the reactions Identify A X Y and Z. A-Methoxymethane X-Ethanol Y-Ethanoic acid Z-Semicarbazide. A-Ethanal X-Ethanol Y-But-2-enal Z-Semicarbazone. A-Ethanol X-Acetalfehyde Y-Butanone Z-Hydrazone. A-Methoxymethane X-Ethanoic acid Y-Acetate ion Z-Hydrazine.
Multiple Choice Options
- A A -Methoxymethane, X -Ethanol, Y -Ethanoic acid, Z-Semicarbazide.
- B A -Ethanal, X -Ethanol, Y -But-2-enal, Z-Semicarbazone.
- C A -Ethanol, X -Acetalfehyde, Y -Butanone, Z-Hydrazone.
- D A -Methoxymethane, X -Ethanoic acid, Y -Acetate ion, Z-Hydrazine.
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
Since, A gives silver mirror test, it must be
an aldehyde and aldehydes are formed by oxidation
of 1 o alcohols. Thus, �X� is a 1 o alcohol, i.e.,
CH 3 CH 2 OH.
