An organic compound on heating with CuO produces CO ₂ but no water. The organic compound may be

Options

  1. Acarbon tetrachloride
  2. Bchloroform
  3. Cmethane
  4. Dethyl iodide

Correct answer

A. carbon tetrachloride

Step-by-step solution

Since, the compound on heating with CuO produced CO ₂ , it contains carbon. Again, it does not produce water, hence it does not contain hydrogen. So, the organic compound is carbon tetrachloride ( CCl ₄ ) .
