Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Acetophenon can be prepared by Friedel-Crafts reaction. By treating benzen with acetyl chloride in the presence of anhydrous aluminium chloride, acetophenone is obtained.
`underset( "Benzene") (C_(6)H_(5)H) +underset("Acetyl chloride")(ClCOH_(3)) overset("Anhyd" AlCl_(3)) to underset("Acetophenone")(C_(6)H_(5)COOH_(3))+HCl`
