How will you distinguish between CH(3)(C...

How will you distinguish between `CH_(3)(CH_(2))_(3)OH` and `CH_(3)CH=CHCH_(2)OH` by a chemical test ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Distinction can be made by bromine water. `CH_(3)CH=CHCH_(2)OH` (unsaturated alcohol) decolourises bromine water while `CH_(3)(CH_(2))_(3)OH` does not.
