`C_(6)H_(6)CI_(6)` on treatment with alcoholic `KOH` yields .

A

`C_(6)H_(6)`

B

`C_(6)H_(3)CI_(3)`

C

`(C_(6)H_(6))OH`

D

`C_(6)H_(6)CI_(4)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`C_(6)H_(6)CI_(6)+3KOH rarrC_(6)H_(3)Ci_(3)CI_(3)+3KCI+3H_(2)O`
Thus benzene hexahalides decompose when heated with alc `KOH` and yield trichloro benzene .
