Solution

Given that the compound (B) does not reduce Fehling solution and gives positive test for iodoform. So it is a ketone. It forms an oxime with hydroxylamine. (B) should be a methyl ketone as it forms a iodoform. As (B) is formed from (A) by hydrolysis it may be a gem dihalide. This is given in above reaction.
