Options
- A(A)-(III), (B)-(I), (C)-(IV), (D)-(II)
- B(A)-(III), (B)-(II), (C)-(I), (D)-(IV)
- C(A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)
- D(A)-(IV), (B)-(III), (C)-(II), (D)-(I)
Correct answer
C. (A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)
Step-by-step solution
(A) Cyclohexene contains a carbon-carbon double bond (unsaturation) and responds to Baeyer's test (cold dilute alkaline KMnO ₄ ). (B) Benzyl alcohol contains an aliphatic alcoholic - OH group and gives a positive Ceric ammonium nitrate test (red color). (C) p-Cresol is a phenolic compound and gives a positive Phthalein dye test. (D) Acetaldehyde is an aldehyde and restores the pink color of Schiff's reagent (Schiff's test). Therefore, the correct matching is (A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(II). Answer: (A)-(III)
