Question

Which of the following is a correct statement for C₂H₅Br?

विकल्प

• It reacts with metallic Na to give ethane.

• It gives nitroethane on heating with aqueous solution of AgNO₂.

• It gives C₂H₅OH on boiling with alcoholic potash.

• It forms diethylthioether on heating with alcoholic KSH.

Answer 1

It gives nitroethane on heating with aqueous solution of AgNO₂.

Explanation:

Butane is formed when C₂H₅Br combines with metallic Na, ethene is formed when C₂H₅Br is boiled with alcoholic potash, and C₂H₅SH (thiol) is formed when C₂H₅Br is heated with alcoholic KSH.
