Butyne-1 and butyne- 2 can be distinguished by
Options
- AH ₂ SO ₄
- BAgNO ₃+ NH ₄ OH
- CK ₂ Cr ₂ O ₇
- DNH ₄ OH
Correct answer
B. AgNO ₃+ NH ₄ OH
Step-by-step solution
Butyne-1 has the terminal hydrogen atom which reacts with ammonical silver nitrate easily and liberate hydrogen. 2 CH ₃ CH ₂ C CH + Ag ₂ O white ppt CH ₃ CH ₂ C CAg + H ₂ O Hence butyne- 1 and butyne- 2 are distinguished by AgNO ₃+ NH ₄ OH
