Solution
The correct option is ABr2/H2O Bromine water is used for test of unsaturation so it tells about unsaturation only not position. Acidic KMnO4 and ozone gives oxidation reaction with alkyne so they state about the position of triple bond and forms the corresponding product and ammonical cuprous chloride reacts with end alkyne only.
