Among the following, the non-spontaneous reaction is

Answer»

`ROH+R'MgX to R'H+Mg(OR)X`
`RONa+NH_(3) to NaNH_(2)+ROH`
`RON a+H_(2)O to NaOH+ROH`
`ROH+HC-=CN atoRON a+HC-=CH`

Solution :The ACID strength follows the order:
`ROH gt HC-=CH gt NH_(3)R'H`
THEREFORE, a weaker acid `(NH_(3))` cannot displace a STRONGER acid (ROH) from its salt (RONa). THUS, reaction (b) is non-spontaneous.
