The hydrocarbon which decolorizes alkaline `KMnO_4` solution but does not give any precipitate with ammoniacal silver nitrate solution is

A

benzene

B

acetylene

C

propyne

D

but-2-yne

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Benzene does not decolorize alkaline `KMnO_4` while acetylene and propyne, due to terminal acidic H atom, give a precipitate with ammoniacal `AgNO_3`. Thus, the answer is but-2-yne
