Question

Consider the following reactions,
A is:

• A. $CH\equiv CH$
• B. $C{H}_3-C\equiv C-C{H}_3$
• C. $C{H}_3-C\equiv CH$
• D. $C{H}_2=C{H}_2$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $C{H}_3-C\equiv CH$

According to the given conditions, the compound should be alkyne with triple bond present at the terminal. The chemical reaction involved are as follows:

Step 1
$\underset{\left(A\right)}{C{H}_3-C\equiv CH}\stackrel{A{g}_{2}O}{\to }\underset{\text{(Precipitate)}}{C{H}_3-C\equiv C^{-}A{g}^{+}}$

Step 2
