Bottles containing C_(6)H_(5)I and C_(6)H_(5)CH_(2)I lost their original labels. They were labelled as A and B for testing. A and B were separately taken in test tubes and boiled with NaoH solution. The end solution in eaach tube was made acidic with dilute HNO_(3) in each tube was made acidic with dilute HNO_(3) and some AgNO_(3) solution was added. substance B gave a yellow precipitate. which one of the following statements is true for this experiment?

Bottles containing C_(6)H_(5)I and C_(6)H_(5)CH_(2)I lost their origin

1.	Bottles containing C_(6)H_(5)I and C_(6)H_(5)CH_(2)I lost their original labels. They were labelled as A and B for testing. A and B were separately taken in test tubes and boiled with NaoH solution. The end solution in eaach tube was made acidic with dilute HNO_(3) in each tube was made acidic with dilute HNO_(3) and some AgNO_(3) solution was added. substance B gave a yellow precipitate. which one of the following statements is true for this experiment?
Answer» Additionn of `HNO_(3)` was unnecessary A was `C_(6)H_(5)CH_(2)I` A was `C_(6)H_(5)CH_(2)I` B was `C_(6)H_(5)I` Solution :Tube A. `C_(6)H_(5)I underset("Boil")overset(NaOH)to"No reaction" underset((ii)AgNO_(3))overset((i)"Dil. "HNO_(3))to "No yellow ppt. of AGI"` Tube B. `C_(6)H_(5)CH_(2)I underset(-C_(6)H_(5)CH_(2)OH)overset(NaOH,boil)to NaI underset((ii)AgNO_(3))overset((i)Dil.HNO_(3))to" AgI yellow ppt."` Thus, statement (b), i.e., A was `C_(6)H_(5)I` is correct.
