Answer» Solution :`UNDERSET(C_(4)H_(8)Cl_(2))(A) overset(KOH(aq))to underset(C_(4)H_(8)O)(B)underset(I_(2))overset(NAOH)toCHI_(3)` `rArr`(B) is a methyl ketone since it RESPONDS positively to iodoform TEST. Hence (B) is `CH_(3)-overset(O)overset(||)C-CH_(2)CH_(3)` Clearly (A) will be `CH_(3)-underset(Cl)underset(|)overset(Cl)overset(|)C-CH_(2)-CH_(3)` |
