One mole of an organic compound A with the formula `C_(3)H_(8)O` reacts completely with two moles of HI to form X and Y. When Y is boiled with aquous alkali it forms Z.Z answers the iodoform test. The compound A is

A

Propan-2-ol

B

Propan-1-ol

C

Ethoxyethane

D

Methoxyethane

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
If a reacts with HI, it could be ether.
`CH_3-O-C_2H_5 overset("HI(excess)")to underset((X))(CH_3I)+ overset((Y))(C_2H_5I)to H_2O`
`underset((Y))(C_2H_5I) overset(aq.KOH)to underset((Z))(C_2H_5OH)`
`C_2H_5OH` gives iodoform test .
