Question

Which of the following conversion explains the acidic nature of alcohols?

पर्याय

• \[\ce{C2H5OH ->[PCl5][\Delta] C2H5Cl + HCl + POCl3}\]

• \[\ce{C2H5 - OH ->[HBr][\Delta] C2H5 - Br + H2O}\]

• \[\ce{C2H5OH ->[95% H2SO4][443 K] C2H4 + H2O}\]

• \[\ce{2C2H5 - OH ->[Na] 2 C2H5 - ONa + H2}\]

Answer 1

\[\ce{2C2H5 - OH ->[Na] 2 C2H5 - ONa + H2}\]

Explanation:

Since 'H' atom of C₂H₂OH is replaced by 'Na' atom, it means 'H' is acidic.
