Explanation

ROH + CH3COCl ------- ROCOCH3 + HCl 

    M                                   (M + 42)

 Acylation of each OH group results in an increase of molecular mass of 42. In the given problem molecular mass of the compound increases by 84 on acylation. Therefore, the compound has two OH groups.

An organic compound A reacts with sodium metal and forms B. On heating with conc. H2SO4, A gives diethyl ether. So A and B are                                                              [AFMC 1998]

Explanation

When ethylene oxide is treated with a Grignard reagent (RMgX), it undergoes nucleophilic addition to form a primary alcohol. The Grignard reagent attacks the electrophilic carbon of the epoxide ring, and the magnesium salt is then hydrolyzed to yield the primary alcohol.

Acetone reacts with iodine (I2) to form iodoform in the presence of

Explanation

Acetone reacts with iodine in the presence of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to form iodoform (CHI3) and sodium acetate. This reaction is called the iodoform test and is used to distinguish methyl ketones from other types of ketones and aldehydes.

Explanation

NaHSO3 gives the addition reaction with aldehyde and only aliphatic ketone. Acetophenone is the aromatic ketone so it does not give the addition product with NaHSO3 aldehyde from the addition product with NaHSO3 which on treatment with acid or base give again aldehyde.
