An organic compound 'X' having molecular formula `C_(5)H_(10)O` yield phenylhydrazone and gives negative response to the iodoform test and Tollens test . It produces n-pentane on reduction. 'X' could be

A

2-pentanone

B

3-pentanone

C

n-amyl alcohol

D

pentanal

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`C_(5)H_(10)O`

This ketone does not give tollens test. Also it does not give iodoform test because it does not have
